Ecclesiastes 6

1There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it common among men: 2A man to whom Elohim has given riches, wealth, and honour, so that he wanteth nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet Elohim giveth him not power to eat thereof, but a stranger eateth it: this vanity, and it an evil disease. 3If a man beget an hundred , and live many years, so that the days of his years be many, and his soul be not filled with good, and also he have no burial; I say, an untimely birth better than he. 4For he cometh in with vanity, and departeth in darkness, and his name shall be covered with darkness. 5Moreover he has not seen the sun, nor known : this has more rest than the other. 6yes, though he live a thousand years twice , yet has he seen no good: do not all go to one place? 7All the labour of man for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled. 8For what has the wise more than the fool? what has the poor, that knoweth to walk before the living? 9Better the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire: this also vanity and vexation of spirit. 10That which has been is named already, and it is known that it man: neither may he contend with him that is mightier than he. 11Seeing there be many things that increase vanity, what man the better? 12For who knoweth what good for man in life, all the days of his vain life which he spendeth as a shadow? for who can tell a man what shall be after him under the sun?
