The opening

1

The words of Koheleth, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.

Vanity of vanities, saith Koheleth; Vanity of vanities, all is vanity.

What profit hath man of all his labour Wherein he laboureth under the sun?

One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh; And the earth abideth for ever.

The whole book is in the Sphinx app.
