There is one that is alone, and he hath not a second; yea, he hath neither son nor brother; yet is there no end of all his labor, neither are his eyes satisfied with riches. For whom then, saith he, do I labor, and deprive my soul of good? This also is vanity, yea, it is a sore travail.

There is a man all alone, without even a son or brother. And though there is no end to his labor, his eyes are still not content with his wealth: “For whom do I toil and bereave my soul of enjoyment?” This too is futile—a miserable task.
Se te yon nonm ki t'ap viv pou kont li, san zanmi. Li pa t' gen pitit gason, li pa t' gen frè. Li travay san pran souf. Li pa t' janm gen ase. Pou ki moun li t'ap travay di konsa, san bay tèt li yon ti plezi? Li pa t' janm gen tan pou mande tèt li sa. Sa a tou, sa pa vo anyen, se pa yon bon jan pou moun viv.
Unus est, et secundum non habet, non filium, non fratrem, et tamen laborare non cessat, nec satiantur oculi ejus divitiis; nec recogitat, dicens: Cui laboro, et fraudo animam meam bonis? In hoc quoque vanitas est et afflictio pessima.]
It is one who is by himself, without a second, and without son or brother; but there is no end to all his work, and he has never enough of wealth. For whom, then, am I working and keeping myself from pleasure? This again is to no purpose, and a bitter work.
tel est seul sans qu’il y ait de second : il n’a pas non plus de fils ni de frère, et il n’y a pas de fin à tout son labeur ; son œil n’est pas non plus rassasié par la richesse, et [il ne se dit pas] : Pour qui donc est-ce que je me tourmente et que je prive mon âme de bonheur ? Cela aussi est une vanité et une ingrate occupation.
Jest samotný někdo, nemaje žádného, ani syna, ani bratra, a však není konce všeliké práci jeho, ani oči jeho nemohou se nasytiti bohatství. Nepomyslí: Komu já pracuji, tak že i životu svému ujímám pohodlí? I to také jest marnost a bídné zaneprázdnění.

Há um homem que está sozinho, e não tem filho nem irmão. Não há fim para todo o seu trabalho, nem os seus olhos se satisfazem com as riquezas. “Para quem, então, eu trabalho e privo a minha alma do prazer?” Isso também é vaidade. Sim, é uma tarefa miserável.
Este unul singur și nu este un al doilea; da, el nu are nici copil, nici frate, totuși nu este sfârșit la toată munca lui, nici nu se satură ochiul lui cu bogății, nici nu spune: Pentru cine muncesc eu și îmi văduvesc sufletul de bine? Aceasta este de asemenea deșertăciune, da, este osteneală grea.
There is one alone, and there is not a second; yea, he has neither son nor brother: yet there is no end to all his labour; neither is his eye satisfied with wealth; and for whom do I labour, and deprive my soul of good? this is also vanity, and an evil trouble.
လူသည်အဘော်အဘက်၊ သားသမီး၊ ညီအစ်ကို မရှိ၊ တယောက်တည်းဖြစ်သော်လည်း၊ ကြိုးစားအားထုတ် ၍ မကုန်နိုင်။ မိမိစည်းစိမ်ကိုမြင်၍ မရောင့်ရဲနိုင်။ ငါသည် ကိုယ်ကိုညှဉ်းဆဲ၍၊ အဘယ်သူအဘို့ ကြိုးစား အားထုတ်သနည်းဟု မမေးတတ်။ ဤအမှုအရာသည် လည်း အနတ္တအမှု၊ အလွန်ပင်ပန်းစေသောအမှုဖြစ်၏။
There is one [alone] and without a second; also he hath neither son nor brother: yet is there no end of all his labour, neither is his eye satisfied with riches, and [he saith not], For whom then am I labouring, and depriving my soul of good? This also is vanity and a grievous occupation.
Da ist ein einzelner und kein zweiter, auch hat er weder Sohn noch Bruder, und all seiner Mühe ist kein Ende; gleichwohl werden seine Augen des Reichtums nicht satt: “Für wen mühe ich mich doch, und lasse meine Seele Mangel leiden am Guten?” Auch das ist Eitelkeit und ein übles Geschäft.
Daar is er een, en geen tweede; hij heeft ook geen kind, noch broeder; nochtans is van al zijn arbeid geen einde; ook wordt zijn oog niet verzadigd van den rijkdom, en zegt niet: Voor wien arbeide ik toch, en doe mijn ziel gebrek hebben van het goede? Dit is ook ijdelheid, en het is een moeilijke bezigheid.
Al staat iemand geheel alleen, En heeft hij geen kinderen of verwanten. Toch komt er aan zijn zwoegen geen einde, En zijn oog heeft nooit rijkdom genoeg. Voor wien dan sloof ik mij uit, En ontzeg ik mij alle genot? Ook dit is dwaas en een ellendig bestaan.
Vi è tale, che è solo, e non ha alcun secondo; ed anche non ha figliuoli, nè fratello, e pure egli si affatica senza fine, ed anche l'occhio suo non è giammai sazio di ricchezze ; e non pensa: Per chi mi affatico, e privo la mia persona di bene? Questo ancora è vanità, ed un mal affare.
There is but one, and he hath not a second, no child, no brother, and yet he ceaseth not to labour, neither are his eyes satisfied with riches, neither doth he reflect, saying: For whom do I labour, and defraud my soul of good things? in this also is vanity, and a grievous vexation.
There is one alone, and there is not a second, which hath neither sonne nor brother, yet is there none end of all his trauaile, neither can his eye be satisfied with riches: neither doeth he thinke, For whome doe I trauaile and defraude my soule of pleasure? this also is vanitie, and this is an euill trauaile.
There is one who is alone, and no one with him; yea, he hath neither son nor brother; yet is there no end to all his labor, and his eye is not satisfied with riches. “For whom, then [[saith he]], do I labor and deprive myself of good?” This also is vanity; yea, it is an evil thing!
Mangen står alene og har ikke nogen ved sin Side, hverken Søn eller Broder, og dog er der ingen Ende på al hans Flid og hans Øje bliver ikke mæt af Rigdom. Men, for hvis Skyld gør jeg mig Flid og nægter mig enhver Nydelse? Også det, er Tomhed og ondt Slid.
There is one alone, and he hath not a companion; yea, he hath neither son nor brother: yet is there no end to all his toil; his eye also is not satisfied with riches. Yet for whom do I toil, and deprive my soul of good? Also this is vanity, yea, it is a bad employment.
There is one that is alone, and he hath not a second; yea, he hath neither son nor brother; yet is there no end of all his labour, neither is his eye satisfied with riches: 'for whom then do I labour, and bereave my soul of pleasure?' This also is vanity, yea, it is a grievous business.

Nầy một người cô độc, chẳng có ai hoặc con trai hay là anh em; dầu vậy, lao khổ nó không thôi, mắt nó không hề chán của cải; nó không hề nghĩ rằng: Vậy ta lao khổ, ta bắt linh hồn nhịn các phước là vì ai? Điều đó cũng là hư không, thật là công việc cực nhọc.
There is one alone, and there is not a second; yea, he hath neither child nor brother: yet is there no end of all his labour; neither is his eye satisfied with riches; neither saith he, For whom do I labour, and bereave my soul of good? This is also vanity, yea, it is a sore travail.
ʻOku ai ʻaia ʻoku tokotaha pe, pea ʻoku ʻikai hono toko ua; ʻio, ʻoku ʻikai haʻane fānau pe kāinga: ka ʻoku ʻikai ngata ʻene ngāue; pea ʻoku ʻikai fiu hono mata ki he koloa; pea ʻoku ʻikai pehē ʻe ia, Ko ʻeku ngāue eni maʻa hai, kau fakamasivaʻi ʻa hoku laumālie ʻi he lelei? Ko e vaʻinga foki eni, ʻio, ko e fakamamahi lahi.
Tel homme est seul, et n'a point de second; il n'a ni fils, ni frère, et toutefois, il n'y a point de fin à tout son travail; même ses yeux ne se rassasient jamais de richesses; il ne se dit point: Pour qui est-ce que je travaille et que je prive mon âme du bien? Cela aussi est une vanité et une pénible occupation.
jen estas solulo, kaj neniun alian li havas; nek filon nek fraton li havas; kaj tamen ne havas finon lia laborado, kaj lia okulo ne povas satiĝi de riĉeco; por kiu do mi laboras kaj senigas mian animon de ĝuado? Ĉi tio ankaŭ estas vantaĵo kaj malbona afero.
Tel homme est seul et sans personne qui lui tienne de près, il n’a ni fils ni frère, et pourtant son travail n’a point de fin et ses yeux ne sont jamais rassasiés de richesses. Pour qui donc est-ce que je travaille, et que je prive mon âme de jouissances? C’est encore là une vanité et une chose mauvaise.
Es ist ein einzelner, und nicht selbander, und hat weder Kind noch Bruder; doch ist seines Arbeitens kein Ende, und seine Augen werden Reichtums nicht satt. Wem arbeite ich doch und breche meiner Seele ab? Das ist auch eitel und eine böse Mühe.

There is one alone , and there is not a second; yes, he hath neither child nor brother: yet is there no end of all his labor; neither is his eye satisfied with riches; neither saith he , For whom do I labor, and bereave my soul of good? This is also vanity, yes, it is a grievous labor.

un tale è solo, senz’alcuno che gli stia da presso; non ha né figlio né fratello, e nondimeno s’affatica senza fine, e i suoi occhi non si sazian mai di ricchezze. E non riflette: Ma per chi dunque m’affatico e privo l’anima mia d’ogni bene? Anche questa è una vanità e un’ingrata occupazione.
Voici un homme seul, qui n'a ni fils ni frère. Son labeur n'a pas de fin, et ses yeux ne sont jamais rassasiés de richesses. « Pour qui donc est-ce que je travaille, et pourquoi me priver de bonheur ? » Cela aussi est vanité. Oui, c'est une tâche ingrate.
Está un hombre solo y sin sucesor; que ni tiene hijo ni hermano; mas nunca cesa de trabajar, ni sus ojos se hartan de sus riquezas, ni se pregunta: ¿Para quién trabajo yo, y defraudo mi alma del bien? También esto es vanidad, y duro trabajo.
Vi a un hombre que estaba completamente solo; no tenía hijos ni hermanos. Trabajaba sin descanso y nunca estaba satisfecho con sus riquezas. Jamás se preguntó: “¿Para quién me estoy esforzando tanto y privándome de disfrutar?”. ¡Esto también es vanidad y un asunto tan triste!
Está un hombre solo y sin sucesor, que no tiene hijo ni hermano; y nunca cesa de trabajar, ni sus ojos se sacian de sus riquezas, ni se pregunta: «¿Para quién trabajo yo y privo a mi alma del bienestar?». También esto es vanidad y tarea penosa.
Čovjek potpun samac - bez sina, bez brata, i opet nema kraja njegovu trudu; oči mu se ne mogu nasititi blaga; a ne misli: za koga se mučim i uskraćujem dobro sebi? I to je ispraznost i zla briga.
Ima ko je sam, inokosan, nema ni sina ni brata, i opet nema kraja trudu njegovom, i oči njegove ne mogu da se nasite bogatstva; a ne misli: Za koga se mučim i oduzimam svojoj duši dobra? I to je taština i zao posao.
es steht einer allein da, ohne einen zweiten, auch hat er weder Sohn noch Bruder, und doch ist seiner Mühe kein Ende und seine Augen werden des Reichtums nicht satt. Aber für wen mühe ich mich denn und darbe mir Gutes ab? Auch das ist eitel und eine leidige Mühe!

Людина собі одинока, нї сина, нї брата, а не перестає працювати, очі його ненаситні на багацтво. Та кому ж се я дбаю, й позбавляю душу мою всякого добра? Та й се — марнота й недобра робота!

有一个人孤单无伴，既没有儿子，也没有兄弟；他的一切劳碌没有止境，他的眼睛也不以财富为满足。他说：“那么，我为谁劳碌，使自己不得享乐呢？”这也是虚空，实在是一件悲惨的事。
