13There is a sore evil which I have seen under the sun, — riches kept by the owner thereof to his hurt.
14For those riches perish by some calamity, and, if he have a son, there is nothing in his hand.
15As he came forth from his mother's womb naked, so shall he go away again, as he came, and shall take away nothing of his labor which he may carry in his hand.
16This is also a sore evil, that, in all points as he came, so shall he go. And what profit is there to him who toileth for wind?
17Also all his days he ate in darkness, and had much grief and anxiety and vexation.
18Behold, what I have seen is, that it is good and proper for one to eat and drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labor which he taketh under the sun all the days of his life, which God giveth him; for it is his portion.
