宜遵守王命
8 谁如智慧人呢？谁知道事情的解释呢？人的智慧使他的脸发光，并使他脸上的暴气改变。 2 我劝你遵守王的命令，既指神起誓，理当如此。 3 不要急躁离开王的面前，不要固执行恶，因为他凡事都随自己的心意而行。 4 王的话本有权力，谁敢问他说：“你做什么呢？” 5 凡遵守命令的必不经历祸患，智慧人的心能辨明时候和定理[a]。 6 各样事务成就都有时候和定理，因为人的苦难重压在他身上。 7 他不知道将来的事，因为将来如何，谁能告诉他呢？ 8 无人有权力掌管生命，将生命留住，也无人有权力掌管死期。这场争战无人能免，邪恶也不能救那好行邪恶的人。 9 这一切我都见过，也专心查考日光之下所做的一切事，有时这人管辖那人，令人受害。
敬畏神终得福乐
10 我见恶人埋葬，归入坟墓，又见行正直事的离开圣地，在城中被人忘记。这也是虚空。 11 因为断定罪名，不立刻施刑，所以世人满心作恶。 12 罪人虽然作恶百次，倒享长久的年日。然而我准知道，敬畏神的，就是在他面前敬畏的人，终久必得福乐。 13 恶人却不得福乐，也不得长久的年日，这年日好像影儿，因他不敬畏神。
14 世上有一件虚空的事，就是义人所遭遇的反照恶人所行的，又有恶人所遭遇的反照义人所行的。我说，这也是虚空。 15 我就称赞快乐，原来人在日光之下，莫强如吃喝快乐。因为他在日光之下，神赐他一生的年日，要从劳碌中时常享受所得的。
16 我专心求智慧，要看世上所做的事，有昼夜不睡觉，不合眼的。 17 我就看明神一切的作为，知道人查不出日光之下所做的事。任凭他费多少力寻查，都查不出来，就是智慧人虽想知道，也是查不出来。

8 誰像有智慧的人呢？
誰知道事情的原委呢？
智慧能使人容光煥發，
使冷酷的面孔柔和。
2 我勸你遵守王的命令，因為你曾在上帝面前這樣發誓。 3 不要在王面前魯莽行事，也不要參與惡行，因為王可以隨意行事。 4 況且，王的命令至高無上，誰敢質問他呢？ 5 遵從王命的必免遭禍患，因為智者心裡懂得做事的時機和方法。 6 儘管人面臨重重困難，但做任何事都有時機和方法。 7 無人知道未來的事，誰能告訴人將來的事呢？ 8 無人能掌管生命[a]，留住生命，也無人能掌管死期。無人能免於這場爭戰，邪惡也救不了作惡者。 9 這一切我都見過了，我用心思考日光之下的一切事。有時人欺壓人、傷害人。 10 我看見惡人生前出入聖所，死後安葬，還在他們作惡的城中受到稱讚，這也是虛空。 11 對犯罪者的刑罰不迅速執行，世人便盡情作惡。 12 雖然罪人作惡多端仍得長壽，我卻認為敬畏上帝的人必亨通。 13 然而，惡人得不到祝福，他們必像幻影一樣不能長久，因為他們不敬畏上帝。 14 世上有一件虛空的事，就是義人遭受了惡人當受的報應，惡人卻享受了義人該享的福樂。我認為這也是虛空。 15 因此，我便讚賞享樂，因為在日光之下沒有什麼比吃喝快樂更好。這是人在上帝所賜的年日裡，從勞碌中當得的享受。 16 我全心去尋求智慧，觀察世上所發生的事，甚至晝夜不眠， 17 思想上帝所做的一切，便知道人無法理解日光之下所發生的事。儘管人努力不懈地去尋找，也不能明白；即使智者自以為明白，他其實仍不能參透。

Ecclesiastes 8
New International Version
Ecclesiastes 8
New International Version
8 Who is like the wise?
Who knows the explanation of things?
A person’s wisdom brightens their face
and changes its hard appearance.
Obey the King
2 Obey the king’s command, I say, because you took an oath before God. 3 Do not be in a hurry to leave the king’s presence.(A) Do not stand up for a bad cause, for he will do whatever he pleases. 4 Since a king’s word is supreme, who can say to him, “What are you doing?(B)”
5 Whoever obeys his command will come to no harm,
and the wise heart will know the proper time and procedure.
6 For there is a proper time and procedure for every matter,(C)
though a person may be weighed down by misery.
7 Since no one knows the future,
who can tell someone else what is to come?
8 As no one has power over the wind to contain it,
so[a] no one has power over the time of their death.
As no one is discharged in time of war,
so wickedness will not release those who practice it.
9 All this I saw, as I applied my mind to everything done under the sun. There is a time when a man lords it over others to his own[b] hurt. 10 Then too, I saw the wicked buried(D)—those who used to come and go from the holy place and receive praise[c] in the city where they did this. This too is meaningless.
11 When the sentence for a crime is not quickly carried out, people’s hearts are filled with schemes to do wrong. 12 Although a wicked person who commits a hundred crimes may live a long time, I know that it will go better(E) with those who fear God,(F) who are reverent before him.(G) 13 Yet because the wicked do not fear God,(H) it will not go well with them, and their days(I) will not lengthen like a shadow.
14 There is something else meaningless that occurs on earth: the righteous who get what the wicked deserve, and the wicked who get what the righteous deserve.(J) This too, I say, is meaningless.(K) 15 So I commend the enjoyment of life(L), because there is nothing better for a person under the sun than to eat and drink(M) and be glad.(N) Then joy will accompany them in their toil all the days of the life God has given them under the sun.
16 When I applied my mind to know wisdom(O) and to observe the labor that is done on earth(P)—people getting no sleep day or night— 17 then I saw all that God has done.(Q) No one can comprehend what goes on under the sun. Despite all their efforts to search it out, no one can discover its meaning. Even if the wise claim they know, they cannot really comprehend it.(R)

Ecclesiastes 8
King James Version
Ecclesiastes 8
King James Version
8 Who is as the wise man? and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? a man's wisdom maketh his face to shine, and the boldness of his face shall be changed.
2 I counsel thee to keep the king's commandment, and that in regard of the oath of God.
3 Be not hasty to go out of his sight: stand not in an evil thing; for he doeth whatsoever pleaseth him.
4 Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto him, What doest thou?
5 Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man's heart discerneth both time and judgment.
6 Because to every purpose there is time and judgment, therefore the misery of man is great upon him.
7 For he knoweth not that which shall be: for who can tell him when it shall be?
8 There is no man that hath power over the spirit to retain the spirit; neither hath he power in the day of death: and there is no discharge in that war; neither shall wickedness deliver those that are given to it.
9 All this have I seen, and applied my heart unto every work that is done under the sun: there is a time wherein one man ruleth over another to his own hurt.
10 And so I saw the wicked buried, who had come and gone from the place of the holy, and they were forgotten in the city where they had so done: this is also vanity.
11 Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.
12 Though a sinner do evil an hundred times, and his days be prolonged, yet surely I know that it shall be well with them that fear God, which fear before him:
13 But it shall not be well with the wicked, neither shall he prolong his days, which are as a shadow; because he feareth not before God.
14 There is a vanity which is done upon the earth; that there be just men, unto whom it happeneth according to the work of the wicked; again, there be wicked men, to whom it happeneth according to the work of the righteous: I said that this also is vanity.
15 Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun.
16 When I applied mine heart to know wisdom, and to see the business that is done upon the earth: (for also there is that neither day nor night seeth sleep with his eyes:)
17 Then I beheld all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun: because though a man labour to seek it out, yet he shall not find it; yea farther; though a wise man think to know it, yet shall he not be able to find it.
