Summary/Abstract: In this paper I deal with the tenth and eleventh verses of Ecclesiastes chapter 3. The eleventh verse in particular constitutes almost a nightmare for translators. First, I examine the range of Czech translations of these verses. I consequently deal with single words or collocations and finally explore the context and links with other passages in the book of Ecclesiastes. My aim is to seek out a convincing exposition of these biblical verses.
