我心裏察究，如何用酒使我肉體舒暢，我心卻仍以智慧引導我；又如何持住愚昧，等我看明世人，在天下一生當行何事為美。

我心里察究，如何用酒使我肉体舒畅，我心却仍以智慧引导我；又如何持住愚昧，等我看明世人，在天下一生当行何事为美。

我心以智慧引导我，我心里探究，如何用酒使身体舒畅，如何抓住愚昧，直等我看明世人在天下短暂一生中，当行何事为美。

于是，我决意用酒使自己快乐，在体验愚昧的同时仍然保持理智，直到我明白在短暂的人生岁月中做何事才有益。

我心里筹思，怎样用酒使我的身体畅快，又保持愚昧，但我的内心仍由智慧引导；直到我看明世人，在诸天之下一生有限的年日中所行的，对他们有益的是什么。

我的心以智慧引领我的同时，我心里探察如何用酒使我的肉体畅快并保持愚昧状，直到我看清世人一生可数的日子里，在天下做什么才有益处。

我心思維、酌酒以快我身、而心仍為智慧所導、又思持守愚拙、知天下人畢生所行、孰為美善、

我姑以酒為懽、若無智然、而仍不敢失度、庶知人生在世、最樂者何事。

我又自思、我且飲酒以樂我身、心仍導以智慧、又執守愚拙、直至我得見人生在世、人生在世原文作人在天下終身行何事為美、

I tried cheering myself with wine, and embracing folly— my mind still guiding me with wisdom. I wanted to see what was good for people to do under the heavens during the few days of their lives.

I tried cheering myself up by drinking wine. I even tried living in a foolish way. But wisdom was still guiding my mind. I wanted to see what was good for people to do on earth during their short lives.

I searched with my heart how to cheer my body with wine— my heart still guiding me with wisdom— and how to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was good for the children of man to do under heaven during the few days of their life.

After much thought, I decided to cheer myself with wine. And while still seeking wisdom, I clutched at foolishness. In this way, I tried to experience the only happiness most people find during their brief life in this world.

I explored with my mind the pull of wine on my body— my mind still guiding me with wisdom— and how to grasp folly, until I could see what is good for people to do under heaven during the few days of their lives.

I explored with my mind how to refresh my body with wine while my mind was guiding me wisely; and how to seize foolishness, until I could see what good there is for the sons of mankind to do under heaven for the few years of their lives.

I searched in my heart how to gratify my flesh with wine, while guiding my heart with wisdom, and how to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was good for the sons of men to do under heaven all the days of their lives.

I searched in my heart how to cheer my flesh with wine, my heart yet guiding me with wisdom, and how to lay hold on folly, till I might see what it was good for the sons of men that they should do under heaven all the days of their life.

I explored with my mind how to let my body enjoy life with wine and how to grasp folly— my mind still guiding me with wisdom— until I could see what is good for people to do under heaven during the few days of their lives.

I sought in mine heart to give myself unto wine, yet acquainting mine heart with wisdom; and to lay hold on folly, till I might see what[ was] that good for the sons of men, which they should do under the heaven all the days of their life.

I thought deeply about the effects of indulging myself with wine( all the while my mind was guiding me with wisdom) and the effects of behaving foolishly, so that I might discover what is profitable for people to do on earth during the few days of their lives.

I searched in my heart how to cheer my flesh with wine, my heart yet guiding me with wisdom, and how to lay hold of folly, until I might see what it was good for the sons of men that they should do under heaven all the days of their lives.

酒能使人褻慢，濃酒使人喧嚷；凡因酒錯誤的，就無智慧。

我又專心察明智慧、狂妄，和愚昧，乃知這也是捕風。

這些事都已聽見了，總意就是：敬畏神，謹守他的誡命，這是人所當盡的本分。

利慕伊勒啊，君王喝酒，君王喝酒不相宜；王子說濃酒在那裏也不相宜；恐怕喝了就忘記律例，顛倒一切困苦人的是非。

不要醉酒，酒能使人放蕩；乃要被聖靈充滿。

人一生虛度的日子，就如影兒經過，誰知道甚麼與他有益呢？誰能告訴他身後在日光之下有甚麼事呢？

人莫強如吃喝，且在勞碌中享福，我看這也是出於神的手。

我們經過的日子都在你震怒之下；我們度盡的年歲好像一聲歎息。我們一生的年日是七十歲，若是強壯可到八十歲；但其中所矜誇的不過是勞苦愁煩，轉眼成空，我們便如飛而去。誰曉得你怒氣的權勢？誰按着你該受的敬畏曉得你的忿怒呢？求你指教我們怎樣數算自己的日子，好叫我們得着智慧的心。

誰有禍患？誰有憂愁？誰有爭鬥？誰有哀歎？誰無故受傷？誰眼目紅赤？就是那流連飲酒、常去尋找調和酒的人。酒發紅，在杯中閃爍，你不可觀看，雖然下咽舒暢，終久是咬你如蛇，刺你如毒蛇。

亞比該到拿八那裏，見他在家裏設擺筵席，如同王的筵席；拿八快樂大醉。亞比該無論大小事都沒有告訴他，就等到次日早晨。

人若死了豈能再活呢？我只要在我一切爭戰的日子，等我被釋放的時候來到。

你持守這個為美，那個也不要鬆手；因為敬畏神的人，必從這兩樣出來。

雅各對法老說：「我寄居在世的年日是一百三十歲，我平生的年日又少又苦，不及我列祖在世寄居的年日。」

我知道世人，莫強如終身喜樂行善；並且人人吃喝，在他一切勞碌中享福，這也是神的恩賜。

我轉念，一心要知道，要考察，要尋求智慧和萬事的理由；又要知道邪惡為愚昧，愚昧為狂妄。

「一個人不能事奉兩個主；不是惡這個、愛那個，就是重這個、輕那個。你們不能又事奉神，又事奉瑪門。」

基督和彼列有甚麼相和呢？信主的和不信主的有甚麼相干呢？神的殿和偶像有甚麼相同呢？因為我們是永生神的殿，就如神曾說：我要在他們中間居住，在他們中間來往；我要作他們的神；他們要作我的子民。又說：你們務要從他們中間出來，與他們分別；不要沾不潔淨的物，我就收納你們。
