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.
19To whatever man also God hath given riches and wealth, and hath given him to enjoy them, and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labor; this is the gift of God.
20For he will not much remember the days of his life; for God answereth him with the joy of his heart.
