אֵֽין־ט֤וֹב בָּאָדָם֙ שֶׁיֹּאכַ֣ל וְשָׁתָ֔ה וְהֶרְאָ֧ה אֶת־נַפְשׁ֛וֹ ט֖וֹב בַּעֲמָל֑וֹ גַּם־זֹה֙ רָאִ֣יתִי אָ֔נִי כִּ֛י מִיַּ֥ד הָאֱלֹהִ֖ים הִֽיא׃
Hindi ba mabuti para sa tao na siya ay kumain at uminom, at ipakita sa kanyang kaluluwa ang mabuti sa kanyang pagpapagal? Ito man ay nakita ko, na ito ay mula sa kamay ng Diyos.
Ecclesiastes
And all that my eyes sought, I did not keep back from them. I did not withhold my heart from any joy. For my heart rejoiced in all my toil. And this [(according to one view, his staff; according to another, his cup)] was my portion from all my toil.
Jeremiah
Contre lui des lionceaux rugissent, poussent leurs cris; ils réduisent son pays en solitude, ses villes en cendres n’ont plus d’habitants.
Ecclesiastes
I know [now, since the time of death is hidden,] that there is nothing better for them than for (each one) to rejoice [in his lot] and to do what is good [in the eyes of the L-rd] in his lifetime.
