וְכֹל֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר שָֽׁאֲל֣וּ עֵינַ֔י לֹ֥א אָצַ֖לְתִּי מֵהֶ֑ם לֹֽא־מָנַ֨עְתִּי אֶת־לִבִּ֜י מִכָּל־שִׂמְחָ֗ה כִּֽי־לִבִּ֤י שָׂמֵ֙חַ֙ מִכָּל־עֲמָלִ֔י וְזֶֽה־הָיָ֥ה חֶלְקִ֖י מִכָּל־עֲמָלִֽי׃
Rien de ce que mes yeux pouvaient désirer ne leur était refusé par moi; je n’interdis aucun plaisir à mon cœur. Mon cœur, en effet, n’eut qu’à s’applaudir des soins que je prenais, et telle fut la récompense de toutes mes peines.
Ecclesiastes
Is it not good in a man that he eat and drink and show his soul [inclined to] good in his toil? [viz. Jeremiah 2:15] This [inclination], too, have I seen to be from the hand of G-d.
Ecclesiastes
And also, every man who eats and drinks and sees good [(Torah and mitzvoth)] in all of his toil, this is a gift of G-d.
Ecclesiastes
Behold what I have seen to be good. It becomes one to eat and to drink and to see good [i.e., to occupy himself with Torah (and not to seek to amass great wealth, but to rejoice in what he has been given)], in all of his toil wherein he toils under the sun the number of the days of his life which G-d has given him; for this is his portion.
