8. Formal Translation All things are wearisome; no man is able to speak them fully. The eye is not satisfied with seeing, and the ear is not filled with hearing. |
8. Dynamic Translation Everything drains strength; no person can express it. The eye never has enough of seeing, and the ear can never get its fill of hearing. |
