TSK · Ecclesiastes 2:17

And if thou deal^H6213 thus with me, kill^H2026 me, I pray thee, out of hand,^H2026 if I have found^H4672 favor^H2580 in thy sight;^H5869 and let me not see^H7200 my wretchedness.^H7451

Wherefore is light^H216 given^H5414 to him that is in misery,^H6001 And life^H2416 unto the bitter^H4751 in soul;^H5315

I loathe^H3988 [my life]; I would not live^H2421 alway:^H5769 Let me alone;^H2308 for my days^H3117 are vanity.^H1892

Oh remember^H2142 how short^H2465 my time is: For what vanity^H7723 hast thou created all the children^H1121 of men!^H1121

Then I looked^H6437 on all the works^H4639 that my hands^H3027 had wrought,^H6213 and on the labor^H5999 that I had labored^H5999 to do;^H6213 and, behold, all was vanity^H1892 and a striving^H7469 after wind,^H7307 and there was no profit^H3504 under the sun.^H8121

And moreover I saw^H7200 under the sun,^H8121 in the place^H4725 of justice,^H4941 that wickedness^H7562 was there; and in the place^H4725 of righteousness,^H6664 that wickedness^H7562 was there.

Better^H2896 is the sight^H4758 of the eyes^H5869 than the wandering^H1980 of the desire:^H5315 this also is vanity^H1892 and a striving^H7469 after wind.^H7307

So the Spirit^H7307 lifted me up,^H5375 and took me away;^H3947 and I went^H3212 in bitterness,^H4751 in the heat^H2534 of my spirit;^H7307 and the hand^H3027 of Jehovah^H3068 was strong^H2388 upon me.

And it came to pass, when the sun^H8121 arose,^H2224 that God^H430 prepared^H4487 a sultry^H2759 east^H6921 wind;^H7307 and the sun^H8121 beat^H5221 upon the head^H7218 of Jonah,^H3124 that he fainted,^H5968 and requested^H7592 for himself^H5315 that he might die,^H4191 and said,^H559 It is better^H2896 for me to die^H4194 than to live.^H2416

But^G1063 I am in a strait^G4912 betwixt^G1537 the two,^G1417 having^G2192 the desire^G1939 to^G1519 depart^G360 and^G2532 be^G1511 with^G4862 Christ;^G5547 for it is^G4183 very far^G3123 better:^G2908
