15So I said to myself, “I am very wise, but I will die at the end of my life, like foolish people do. So ◄how has it benefited me to be very wise?/it certainly has not benefited me to be very wise RHQ►. I do not understand why people consider that it is valuable to be wise.
16Wise people and foolish people all die. And after we die, we will all eventually be forgotten DOU.”
17So I hated being alive, because everything that we do here on the earth MTY distresses me. It all seems to be useless like chasing the wind.
18I also began to hate all the hard work that I had done, because when I die, everything that I have acquired will belong to the next king.
19And ◄who/no one► knows RHQ whether he will be wise or whether he will be foolish. But even if he is foolish, he will acquire all the things that I worked very hard and wisely to get.
