6 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “vanity” →
So am I made to possess months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed to me.
I loathe it; I would not live alway: let me alone; for my days are vanity.
Let not him that is deceived trust in vanity: for vanity shall be his recompence.
They conceive mischief, and bring forth vanity, and their belly prepareth deceit.
If I have walked with vanity, or if my foot hath hasted to deceit;
Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it.
