Lexicon :: Strong's H5999 - ʿāmāl

“He has not looked ^H5027 at ^H5027 misfortune ^H205 in Jacob ^H3290;

Nor ^H3808 has He seen ^H7200 trouble ^H5999 in Israel ^H3478;

The LORD ^H3068 his God ^H430 is with him,

And the joyful ^H8643 shout ^H8643 of a king ^H4428 is among them.

Because ^H3588 it did not shut ^H5462 the opening ^H1817 of my mother’s womb ^H990,

Or hide ^H5641 trouble ^H5999 from my eyes ^H5869.

“According to what ^H834 I have seen ^H7200, those who [fn]plow ^H2790 wrongdoing ^H205

And those who sow ^H2232 trouble ^H5999 harvest ^H7114 it.

“For disaster ^H205 does not come ^H3318 from the dust ^H6083,

Nor ^H3808 does trouble ^H5999 sprout ^H6779 from the ground ^H127,

So ^H3651 I am allotted ^H5157 worthless ^H7723 months ^H3391,

And nights ^H3915 of trouble ^H5999 are apportioned ^H4487 to me.

“For you would forget ^H7911 your trouble ^H5999;

Like waters ^H4325 that have passed ^H5674 by ^H5674, you would remember ^H2142 it.

“They conceive ^H2029 [fn]harm ^H5999 and give ^H3205 birth ^H3205 to wrongdoing ^H205,

And their [fn]mind ^H990 prepares ^H3559 deception ^H4820.”

“I have heard ^H8085 many ^H7227 things ^H7227 like these ^H428;

[fn]Miserable ^H5999 comforters ^H5162 are you all ^H3605!

Behold ^H2009, an evil person is ^H2254 pregnant ^H2254 with injustice ^H205,

And he conceives ^H2029 harm ^H5999 and gives ^H3205 birth ^H3205 to lies ^H8267.

His harm ^H5999 will return ^H7725 on his own head ^H7218,

And his violence ^H2555 will descend ^H3381 on the top ^H6936 of ^H6936 his own head ^H6936.

His mouth ^H6310 is full ^H4390 of cursing ^H423, deceit ^H4820, and oppression ^H8496;

Under ^H8478 his tongue ^H3956 is harm ^H5999 and injustice ^H205.

You have seen ^H7200 it, for You have looked ^H5027 at harm ^H5999 and provocation ^H3708 to [fn]take ^H5414 it into Your hand ^H3027.

The [fn]unfortunate ^H2489 commits ^H5800 himself to You;

You have been ^H1961 the helper ^H5826 of the orphan ^H3490.

Look ^H7200 at ^H7200 my misery ^H6040 and my trouble ^H5999,

And forgive ^H5375 all ^H3605 my sins ^H2403.

Day ^H3119 and night ^H3915 they go ^H5437 around ^H5437 her upon her walls ^H2346,

And evil ^H205 and harm ^H5999 are in her midst ^H7130.

They are not [fn]in trouble ^H5999 like other people ^H582,

Nor ^H3808 are they tormented ^H5060 together ^H5973 with ^H5973 the rest of mankind ^H120.

When I thought ^H2803 of understanding ^H3045 this ^H2088,

It was [fn]troublesome ^H5999 in my sight ^H5869

As for the days ^H3117 of our [fn]life ^H8141, [fn]they contain seventy ^H7657 years ^H8141,

Or if ^H518 due to strength ^H1369, eighty ^H8084 years ^H8141,

Yet their pride ^H7296 is only trouble ^H5999 and tragedy ^H205;

For it quickly ^H2439 passes ^H1468, and we disappear ^H5774.

Can a [fn]throne ^H3678 of destruction ^H1942 be allied ^H2266 with You,

One which devises ^H3335 [fn]mischief ^H5999 by decree ^H2706?

He also gave ^H5414 them the lands ^H776 of the [fn]nations ^H1471,

So that they might take ^H3423 possession ^H3423 of the fruit of the peoples’ ^H3816 labor ^H5999,

Therefore He humbled ^H3665 their heart ^H3820 with labor ^H5999;

They stumbled ^H3782 and there ^H369 was ^H369 no ^H369 one ^H369 to help ^H5826.

“As for the head ^H7218 of those who surround ^H5437 me,

May the harm ^H5999 of their lips ^H8193 cover ^H3680 them.

For their [fn]minds ^H3820 plot ^H1897 violence ^H7701,

And their lips ^H8193 talk ^H1696 of trouble ^H5999.

Let him drink ^H8354 and forget ^H7911 his poverty ^H7389,

And remember ^H2142 his trouble ^H5999 no ^H3808 more ^H5750.

What ^H4100 advantage ^H3504 does a person ^H120 have in all ^H3605 his work ^H5999

Which ^H7945 he does ^H5998 under ^H8478 the sun ^H8121?

So I hated ^H8130 all ^H3605 the fruit ^H5999 of ^H5999 my labor ^H5999 for which ^H7945 I had labored ^H6001 under ^H8478 the sun ^H8121, because I must leave ^H5117 it to the man ^H120 who ^H7945 will come ^H1961 after ^H310 me.

There ^H369 is ^H369 nothing ^H369 better ^H2896 for a person ^H120 than to eat ^H398 and drink ^H8354, and show ^H7200 [fn]himself ^H5315 some good ^H2896 in his trouble ^H5999. This ^H2090 too ^H1571 I have seen ^H7200, that it is from the hand ^H3027 of God ^H430.

I have seen ^H7200 that every ^H3605 labor ^H5999 and every ^H3605 skill ^H3788 which is done ^H4639 is the result of rivalry ^H7068 between a person ^H376 and his neighbor ^H7453. This ^H2088 too ^H1571 is futility ^H1892 and striving ^H7469 after wind ^H7307.

Here ^H2009 is what ^H834 I have seen ^H7200 to be good ^H2896 and [fn]fitting ^H3303: to eat ^H398, to drink ^H8354, and [fn]enjoy ^H7200 H2896 oneself in all ^H3605 one’s labor ^H5999 in which ^H7945 he labors ^H5998 under ^H8478 the sun ^H8121 during the few ^H4557 [fn]years ^H3117 of his life ^H2416 which ^H834 God ^H430 has given ^H5414 him; for this ^H1931 is his [fn]reward ^H2506.

All ^H3605 a person’s ^H120 labor ^H5999 is for his mouth ^H6310, and yet ^H1571 [fn]his appetite ^H5315 is not [fn]satisfied ^H4390.

Woe ^H1945 to those who enact ^H2710 unjust ^H205 statutes ^H2706

And to those who constantly ^H3789 record ^H3789 [fn]harmful ^H5999 decisions ^H5999,

As a result ^H4480 of the [fn]anguish ^H5999 of His soul ^H5315,

He will [fn]see ^H7200 it and be ^H7646 satisfied ^H7646;

By His knowledge ^H1847 the Righteous ^H6662 One ^H6662,

My Servant ^H5650, will justify ^H6663 the many ^H7227,

For He will bear ^H5445 their wrongdoings ^H5771.
