智者明於目、愚者行於暗、我知其終、所遇一也、

智者明目、愚人行暗、及其終也、何異之有。

智者凡事目明、愚者行於幽暗、然亦知智者愚者所遇、無以異也、

The wise have eyes in their heads, while the fool walks in the darkness; but I came to realize that the same fate overtakes them both.

The eyes of a wise person see things clearly. A person who is foolish lives in darkness. But I finally realized that death catches up with both of them.

The wise person has his eyes in his head, but the fool walks in darkness. And yet I perceived that the same event happens to all of them.

For the wise can see where they are going, but fools walk in the dark.” Yet I saw that the wise and the foolish share the same fate.

The wise person has eyes in his head, but the fool walks in darkness. Yet I also knew that one fate comes to them both.

The wise person’s eyes are in his head, but the fool walks in darkness. And yet I know that one and the same fate happens to both of them.

The wise man’s eyes are in his head, But the fool walks in darkness. Yet I myself perceived That the same event happens to them all.

哲士追求智慧，愚人漫无目标。

众所周知，即使智者也要死去，愚人和庸者也要灭亡，将他们的财富留给别人。

我又发现，日光之下，跑得快的未必能得奖，强大的未必能得胜，智者未必得温饱，聪明人未必有财富，博学者未必受爱戴，因为时机和境遇左右众人。

因为人和兽的际遇并无分别，两者都难逃一死，活着都靠一口气。人并不比兽强，一切都是虚空。

我仔细思想、探究这些事，就知道义人、智者及他们的行事为人都由上帝掌管，人无法知道前面等待自己的是爱还是恨。义人和恶人、好人和坏人、洁净的和污秽的、献祭的和不献祭的、行善的和犯罪的、敢于起誓的和不敢起誓的人，最终的命运都一样。在日光之下有一件可悲的事，就是人最终的命运都一样。再者，人内心都充满邪恶，活着的时候行事狂妄，最后都步入死亡。

这些比纯金还宝贵，比蜂房的蜜更甘甜。

我认为智慧胜过武力，然而那位穷人的智慧却被轻视，他所说的话也无人理会。

就算那人活了千年，又活千年，却不能享受福乐，又如何呢？世人最终岂不都同归一处吗？

明哲凭智慧辨道，愚人被愚昧欺骗。

探望丧家胜过参加宴席，因为死亡是每个人的结局，活着的人要把这事铭记在心。

谁像有智慧的人呢？谁知道事情的原委呢？智慧能使人容光焕发，使冷酷的面孔柔和。

智者的心引导他走正路，愚人的心带领他入歧途。愚人走路时也无知，并向众人显出他的愚昧。
