## all the deeds that my hands had accomplished ##
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
AT: "all that I had accomplished" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche]])

## vapor and an attempt to shepherd the wind ##

## For what can the next king do...which has not already been done? ##
|

|
|
|

|
|
The writer uses this question to emphasize his point that the next king will not be able to do anything more valuable that what he had already done. AT: "For the next king can do nothing...which has not already been done." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])

|
## the next king...who comes after the king ##
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
"the king...who succeeds the current king." This was probably written by the current king, so "after the king" could also be translated as "after me." (See: UDB)
