因為世人遭遇的，走獸也遭遇，所遭遇的都一樣：這個怎樣死，那個也怎樣死，他們都有一樣的氣息。人不能強於走獸，全是虛空；

因为世人遭遇的，兽也遭遇，所遭遇的都是一样：这个怎样死，那个也怎样死，气息都是一样。人不能强于兽，都是虚空。

因为世人遭遇的，走兽也遭遇，所遭遇的都一样：这个怎样死，那个也怎样死，他们都有一样的气息。人不能强于走兽，全是虚空；

因为世人遭遇的，走兽也遭遇，所遭遇的都一样：这个怎样死，那个也怎样死，他们都有一样的气息。人不能强于走兽，全是虚空；

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。

因为世人所遭遇的与牲畜所遭遇的，都是一样：这个怎样死，那个也怎样死，两者的气息都是一样，所以人并不胜于牲畜。一切都是虚空。

因为世人的命运和兽的命运都一样：这个会死，那个也一样会死，他们都有一样的气息，人不比兽优越。这全是虚空！

因為世人遭遇的，獸也遭遇，所遭遇的都是一樣：這個怎樣死，那個也怎樣死，氣息都是一樣。人不能強於獸，都是虛空。

因為世人遭遇的，走獸也遭遇，所遭遇的都一樣：這個怎樣死，那個也怎樣死，他們都有一樣的氣息。人不能強於走獸，全是虛空；

因為人和獸的際遇並無分別，兩者都難逃一死，活著都靠一口氣。人並不比獸強，一切都是虛空。

因為世人所遭遇的與牲畜所遭遇的，都是一樣：這個怎樣死，那個也怎樣死，兩者的氣息都是一樣，所以人並不勝於牲畜。一切都是虛空。

因為人類所遭遇的、獸類也遭遇着：他們都有一樣的遭遇：這個怎樣死，那個也怎樣死；二者都有一樣的氣息：人比獸並沒有甚麼長處；都是虛空。

因為世人的命運和獸的命運都一樣：這個會死，那個也一樣會死，他們都有一樣的氣息，人不比獸優越。這全是虛空！

人所遇者、獸亦遇之、人與獸所遇惟一、此之死猶彼之死、同一氣之呼吸、人無所愈於獸、悉屬虛空、

世人禽獸、同一氣之呼吸、其必死無以異也、則人不遠於禽獸、而萬事悉歸諸虛矣。

人命獸命俱同、原文作人之所遇無異獸之所遇人與獸所遇惟一死亦彼此無異、皆恃呼吸之氣、如此、人無所勝於獸、皆屬於虛、

Surely the fate of human beings is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath; humans have no advantage over animals. Everything is meaningless.

Surely what happens to animals happens to people too. Death waits for people and animals alike. People die, just as animals do. All of them have the same breath. People don’t have any advantage over animals. Nothing has any meaning.

For what happens to the children of man and what happens to the beasts is the same; as one dies, so dies the other. They all have the same breath, and man has no advantage over the beasts, for all is vanity.

For people and animals share the same fate— both breathe and both must die. So people have no real advantage over the animals. How meaningless!

For the fate of the children of Adam and the fate of animals is the same. As one dies, so dies the other; they all have the same breath. People have no advantage over animals since everything is futile.

For the fate of the sons of mankind and the fate of animals is the same. As one dies, so dies the other; indeed, they all have the same breath, and there is no advantage for mankind over animals, for all is futility.

For what happens to the sons of men also happens to animals; one thing befalls them: as one dies, so dies the other. Surely, they all have one breath; man has no advantage over animals, for all is vanity.

For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; and man hath no preeminence above the beasts: for all is vanity.

For the fate of people and the fate of animals is the same. As one dies, so dies the other; they all have the same breath. People have no advantage over animals since everything is futile.

For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all[ is] vanity.

For the fate of humans and the fate of animals are the same: As one dies, so dies the other; both have the same breath. There is no advantage for humans over animals, for both are fleeting.

For that which happens to the sons of men happens to animals. Even one thing happens to them. As the one dies, so the other dies. Yes, they have all one breath; and man has no advantage over the animals; for all is vanity.

人居尊貴中不能長久，如同死亡的畜類一樣。

人在尊貴中而不醒悟，就如死亡的畜類一樣。

智慧人和愚昧人一樣，不會長久被人記念，因為日後都被遺忘。可嘆！智慧人和愚昧人都一樣會死亡。

看哪，你使我的年日窄如手掌，我一生的年數，在你面前如同無有；各人最穩妥的時候，真是全然虛幻。（細拉）世人行動實係幻影，他們忙亂，真是枉然，積蓄財寶，不知將來有誰收取。

求你想念我的生命是何等短暫。你創造世人，要使他們歸於何等的虛空呢？誰能常活不見死亡、救自己脫離陰間的掌控呢？（細拉）

但壯士一死就消逝了；人一氣絕，他在何處呢？海中的水枯竭，江河消散乾涸。人一躺下就不再起來，等到諸天沒有了，仍不復醒，也不能從睡中喚醒。

你轉臉，牠們就驚惶；你收回牠們的氣，牠們就死亡，歸於塵土。

我轉想我在日光之下所勞碌的一切工作，心就絕望。因為有人用智慧、知識、靈巧勞碌工作，所得來的卻要遺留給未曾勞碌的人作產業。這也是虛空，大大不幸。人一切的勞碌操心，就是他在日光之下所勞碌的，又得着了甚麼呢？他日日憂慮，他的勞苦成為愁煩，連夜間心也不得休息。這也是虛空。

我們都必死，如同水潑在地上，不能收回。上帝不會讓人不死，但仍設法使逃亡的人不致成為趕出、回不來的人。

畜牲一般的人不曉得，愚昧人也不明白。惡人雖茂盛如草，作惡的人雖全都興旺，他們卻要滅亡，直到永遠。

智慧人的眼目光明，愚昧人卻在黑暗裏行。但我知道他們都有相同的遭遇。
