ASV: For all his days are but'sorrows, and his travail is grief; yea, even in the night his heart taketh no rest. This also is vanity. BBE: All his days are sorrow, and his work is full of grief. Even in the night his heart has no rest. This again is to no purpose. DBY: For all his days are sorrows, and his travail vexation: even in the night his heart taketh no rest. This also is vanity. JPS: For all his days are pains, and his occupation vexation; yea, even in the night his heart taketh not rest. This also is vanity. WBS: For all his days are sorrows, and his labor grief; yes, his heart taketh not rest in the night. This is also vanity. WEB: For all his days are sorrows, and his travail is grief; yes, even in the night his heart takes no rest. This also is vanity.
