NASB | Ecclesiastes 2:1 I said to myself, "Come now, I will test you with pleasure. So enjoy yourself." And behold, it too was futility. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Ecclesiastes 2:1 I said to myself, "Come now, I will test you with pleasure and gratification; so enjoy yourself and have a good time." But behold, this too was vanity (futility, meaninglessness). [Luke 12:19, 20] |
Bible Question (short): Meaningless vs. vanity |
Question (full): Can anyone tell me why the New International Version substitutes the word "meaningless" throughout Ecclesiastes for the more commonly used word "vanity"? |
