Kaz 2, 1-26

1 I said in mine heart, Go to now, I will prove you with delight, therefore enjoy pleasure: and, behold, this also is vanity. 2 I said of laughter, It is mad: and of delight, What does it? 3 "I sought in mine heart to give myself unto wine, yet acquainting mine heart with wisdom; and to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was that good for the sons of men, which they should do under the heaven all the days of their life. " 4 "I made me great works; I built me houses; I planted me vineyards: " 5 I made me gardens and orchards, and I planted trees in them of all kind of fruits: 6 I made me pools of water, to water therewith the wood that brings forth trees: 7 "I got me servants and maidens, and had servants born in my house; also I had great possessions of great and small cattle above all that were in Jerusalem before me: " 8 I gathered me also silver and gold, and the exclusive treasure of kings and of the provinces: I got me men singers and women singers, and the delights of the sons of men, as musical instruments, and that of all sorts. 9 So I was great, and increased more than all that were before me in Jerusalem: also my wisdom remained with me. 10 "And whatsoever mine eyes desired I kept not from them, I withheld not my heart from any joy; for my heart rejoiced in all my labour: and this was my portion of all my labour. " 11 Then I looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labour that I had laboured to do: and, behold, all was vanity and vexation of spirit, and there was no profit under the sun. 12 And I turned myself to behold wisdom, and madness, and folly: for what can the man do that comes after the king? even that which has been already done. 13 Then I saw that wisdom excels folly, as far as light excels darkness. 14 "The wise man's eyes are in his head; but the fool walks in darkness: and I myself perceived also that one event happens to them all. " 15 "Then said I in my heart, As it happens to the fool, so it happens even to me; and why was I then more wise? Then I said in my heart, that this also is vanity. " 16 "For there is no remembrance of the wise more than of the fool for ever; seeing that which now is in the days to come shall all be forgotten. And how dies the wise man? as the fool. " 17 "Therefore I hated life; because the work that is wrought under the sun is grievous unto me: for all is vanity and vexation of spirit. " 18 Yea, I hated all my labour which I had taken under the sun: because I should leave it unto the man that shall be after me. 19 And who knows whether he shall be a wise man or a fool? yet shall he have rule over all my labour wherein I have laboured, and wherein I have showed myself wise under the sun. This is also vanity. 20 Therefore I went about to cause my heart to despair of all the labour which I took under the sun. 21 "For there is a man whose labour is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and in equity; yet to a man that has not laboured therein shall he leave it for his portion. This also is vanity and a great evil. " 22 For what has man of all his labour, and of the vexation of his heart, wherein he has laboured under the sun? 23 "For all his days are sorrows, and his travail grief; yea, his heart takes not rest in the night. This is also vanity. " 24 There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labour. This also I saw, that it was from the hand of God. 25 For who can eat, or who else can hasten hereunto, more than I? 26 For God gives to a man that is good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he gives travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to him that is good before God. This also is vanity and vexation of spirit.

Verš 24

There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labour. This also I saw, that it was from the hand of God.

Kaz 3:12 - I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life.

Kaz 3:22 - "Wherefore I perceive that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion: for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him? "

Kaz 5:19 - "Every man also to whom God has given riches and wealth, and has given him power to eat thereof, and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labour; this is the gift of God. "

Kaz 8:15 - Then I commended delight, because a man has no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God gives him under the sun.

Verš 1

I said in mine heart, Go to now, I will prove you with delight, therefore enjoy pleasure: and, behold, this also is vanity.

Lk 12:19 - "And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have much goods laid up for many years; take your ease, eat, drink, and be merry. "

Verš 26

For God gives to a man that is good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he gives travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to him that is good before God. This also is vanity and vexation of spirit.

Jób 27:16 - "Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay; "

Prís 28:8 - He that by interest and unjust gain increases his substance, he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor.

Kaz 3:13 - And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.

Verš 12

And I turned myself to behold wisdom, and madness, and folly: for what can the man do that comes after the king? even that which has been already done.

Kaz 1:17 - And I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit.

Kaz 7:23 - "All this have I proved by wisdom: I said, I will be wise; but it was far from me. "

Verš 22

For what has man of all his labour, and of the vexation of his heart, wherein he has laboured under the sun?

Kaz 1:3 - What profit has a man of all his labour which he takes under the sun?

Kaz 3:9 - What profit has he that works in that wherein he labours?

Kaz 2,3 - "Vínom potúžiť" – Vg má: "zdržovať sa od vína". Hebrejské slovo "mašak" môže znamenať 1) odtiahnuť, 2) udržať, posilniť. Prijímame tento druhý význam pre lepšiu súvislosť.

Kaz 2,4-9 - Opis boháča čerpá viac podrobnosti zo života historického kráľa Šalamúna. O stavbách Šalamúnových porov. 1 Kr hl. 6, 7, 9, 10.

Kaz 2,8 - "Množstvo žien" – to nie je celkom spoľahlivý preklad. Vulgáta má: "poháre a džbánky". Ale ani preklad grécky nie je azda rozhodujúci ("ustanovil som si mnoho výčapníkov a výčapníčok"). V tých krajinách bolo známkou bohatstva, keď sa niektorý veľmož mohol pochváliť čo najväčším počtom vedľajších žien (porov. 1 Kr 11,3). O poplatných kráľoch Šalamúnových porov. 1 Kr 5,1; 10,15. O poplatkoch palestínskych krajov porov. 1 Kr 4,7–20.

Kaz 2,12 - Tak sa zdá, že prvá časť verša podáva obsah v. 13–17, kým druhá časť naznačuje obsah v. 18–23. Kazateľ tu vystupuje ako kráľ. Miesto je nejasné pre poruchu hebr. osnovy, ktorú už aj grécky prekladateľ tak našiel.

Kaz 2,14 - Je najskôr porekadlo, ako keď my hovoríme o niekom, že má otvorené oči.

Kaz 2,24 - Vg.: "Či nie je lepšie jesť a piť a dopriať svojej duši dobrých vecí zo svojich prác?" Jesť a piť je obraz dovolených radostí života. Taká rada je v podstate čestná.

Kaz 2,25 - Porov. Prís 13,22; Jób 27,16 n.
