20Therefore I turned about to cause my heart to despair concerning all the labour wherein I had laboured under the sun.
21For there is a man whose labour is with wisdom, and with knowledge, and with skill; yet to a man that hath not laboured therein shall he leave it for his portion. This also is vanity and a great evil.
22For what hath a man of all his labour, and of the striving of his heart, wherein he laboureth under the sun?
23For all his days are pains, and his occupation vexation; yea, even in the night his heart taketh not rest. This also is vanity.
24There is nothing better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and make his soul enjoy pleasure for his labour. This also I saw, that it is from the hand of God.
