传道书 1
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
1 以下是传道者，就是在耶路撒冷作王、大卫的儿子所说的话。
万事令人厌倦都是虚空
2 传道者说：虚空的虚空。
虚空的虚空，一切都是虚空。
3 人的一切劳碌，就是他在日光之下的劳碌，
对自己有甚么益处呢？
4 一代过去，一代又来，
地却永远存在。
5 太阳升起，太阳落下，
匆忙回到它上升之处。
6 风向南刮，又往北转，
循环周行，旋转不息。
7 江河向海里流，海却不满溢；
江河之水归回本源，循环流转。
8 万事都令人厌倦，
人说，说不尽；
眼看，看不饱；
耳听，听不足。
9 已有的事必再有，
作过的事必再作；
日光之下并无新事。
10 有甚么事人可以说：
“看啊！这是新的”？
其实，很久之前已经有了，
在我们之前早就有了。
11 以前的事，无人记念；
将来的事，后来的人也不追忆。
智慧知识都是虚空
12 那时，我传道者在耶路撒冷作以色列的王。 13 我曾用智慧专心寻求查究天下所发生的一切事；原来 神给予世人的，是劳苦的担子，叫他们为此烦恼。 14 我看过日光之下所发生的一切事，不料，一切都是虚空，都是捕风。 15 弯曲的，不能弄直；缺少的，不能数算。 16 我自己心里说：“我得了极大的智慧，胜过所有在我以前统治耶路撒冷的人；我见识了许多智慧与知识。” 17 我又专心究察智慧和知识，狂妄和愚昧，才知道这也是捕风。 18 因为多有智慧，就多有烦恼；加增知识，就加增痛苦。
Ecclesiastes 1
Revised Geneva Translation
Ecclesiastes 1
Revised Geneva Translation
1 The words of the preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.
2 “Vanity of vanities,” says the preacher, “Vanity of vanities. All is vanity.
3 “What remains to man in all his travail which he suffers under the Sun?”
4 One generation passes, and another generation succeeds. But the Earth remains forever.
5 The Sun rises, and the Sun goes down, and hastens to its place where it arose.
6 The wind goes toward the south, and circles around toward the north. The wind whirls about continually and returns by its circuits.
7 All the rivers go into the sea. Yet the sea is not full. For the rivers go to the place from where they have returned.
8 All things are full of labor. Man cannot utter it. The eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing.
9 What has been is what will be. And what has been done is what shall be done. And there is no new thing under the Sun.
10 Is there anything of which one may say, “Behold this, it is new?” It has already been in the previous time before us.
11 There is no memory of former things, nor shall there be a remembrance of things to come by those who shall come after.
12 I, the preacher, have been king over Israel in Jerusalem.
13 And I have given my heart to search and find out wisdom by all things that are done under the heaven. God has given this sore travail to the sons of men to humble them.
14 I have considered all the works that are done under the Sun and behold, all is vanity and grasping at the wind.
15 That which is crooked can no one make straight. And that which fails cannot be numbered.
16 I thought in my heart, and said, “Behold, I have become great, and exceed in wisdom all those who have been before me in Jerusalem. And my heart has seen much wisdom and knowledge.”
17 And I gave my heart to know wisdom and knowledge, madness and foolishness. I knew also that this is grasping at the wind.
18 For in the multitude of wisdom is much grief. And he who increases knowledge, increases sorrow.
Ecclesiastes 1
New International Version
Ecclesiastes 1
New International Version
Everything Is Meaningless
1 The words of the Teacher,[a](A) son of David, king in Jerusalem:(B)
2 “Meaningless! Meaningless!”
says the Teacher.
“Utterly meaningless!
Everything is meaningless.”(C)
3 What do people gain from all their labors
at which they toil under the sun?(D)
4 Generations come and generations go,
but the earth remains forever.(E)
5 The sun rises and the sun sets,
and hurries back to where it rises.(F)
6 The wind blows to the south
and turns to the north;
round and round it goes,
ever returning on its course.
7 All streams flow into the sea,
yet the sea is never full.
To the place the streams come from,
there they return again.(G)
8 All things are wearisome,
more than one can say.
The eye never has enough of seeing,(H)
nor the ear its fill of hearing.
9 What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;(I)
there is nothing new under the sun.
10 Is there anything of which one can say,
“Look! This is something new”?
It was here already, long ago;
it was here before our time.
11 No one remembers the former generations,(J)
and even those yet to come
will not be remembered
by those who follow them.(K)
Wisdom Is Meaningless
12 I, the Teacher,(L) was king over Israel in Jerusalem.(M) 13 I applied my mind to study and to explore by wisdom all that is done under the heavens.(N) What a heavy burden God has laid on mankind!(O) 14 I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.(P)
15 What is crooked cannot be straightened;(Q)
what is lacking cannot be counted.
16 I said to myself, “Look, I have increased in wisdom more than anyone who has ruled over Jerusalem before me;(R) I have experienced much of wisdom and knowledge.” 17 Then I applied myself to the understanding of wisdom,(S) and also of madness and folly,(T) but I learned that this, too, is a chasing after the wind.
