14And I saw the destruction of his wealth by an evil chance; and when he became the father of a son he had nothing in his hand.
15As he came from his mother at birth, so does he go again; he gets from his work no reward which he may take away in his hand.
16And this again is a great evil, that in all points as he came so will he go; and what profit has he in working for the wind?
17All his days are in the dark, and he has much sorrow, pain, disease, and trouble.
18This is what I have seen: it is good and fair for a man to take meat and drink and to have joy in all his work under the sun, all the days of his life which God has given him; that is his reward.
