Ecclesiastes 1:12-14

Names of God Bible

The Spokesman Begins to Study Everything under Heaven

¹² I, the spokesman, have been king of Israel in Jerusalem. ¹³ With all my heart I used wisdom to study and explore everything done under heaven.

The Spokesman’s General Conclusion

Mortals are weighed down with a terrible burden that Elohim has placed on them. ¹⁴ I have seen everything that is done under the sun. Look at it! It’s all pointless. It’s like trying to catch the wind.
