1 I ^csaid in my heart, “Come now, I will test you with pleasure; enjoy yourself.” But behold, this also was vanity. ^{▼▼The Hebrew term hebel can refer to a “vapor” or “mere breath”; also verses 11, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 26 (see note on 1:2)}

and it shall be devoured; ^{▼▼Or grazed over; compare Exodus 22:5}
^gI will break down its wall,
and it shall be trampled down.
