我復專心以明智慧、而知狂妄愚蒙、乃覺亦屬捕風、

Then I applied myself to the understanding of wisdom, and also of madness and folly, but I learned that this, too, is a chasing after the wind.

Then I used my mind to understand what it really means to be wise. And I wanted to know what foolish pleasure is all about. But I found out that it’s also like chasing the wind.

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。

凡事都要小心察验，持守良善的事，

凡我眼睛爱看的、心里渴慕的，我都随心所欲，尽情享受。我的心从劳碌中得到欢乐，这是我劳碌所得的回报。然而，当我回顾双手辛勤经营的一切成就时，唉，却发现都是虚空，都是捕风；日光之下的一切都毫无益处。于是，我转念思考什么是智慧、狂妄和愚昧。其实以后接替君王的人除了重演历史之外，还能做什么呢？

我专心用智慧去研究、探索天下各样的事，发现上帝给世人的是极重的苦工。我观察一切日光之下所做的事，看啊，都是虚空，好像捕风。

我用智慧试验过这一切。我说：“我要做智者”，谁知智慧却离我甚远。智慧如此遥不可及、深不可测，谁能找得到呢？我用心去认识、探究、追寻智慧和事物的原委，并去认识邪恶带来的愚昧和无知带来的狂妄。
