2A man to whom God hath giuen riches and treasures and honour, and he wanteth nothing for his soule of all that it desireth: but God giueth him not power to eate thereof, but a strange man shall eate it vp: this is vanitie, and this is an euill sicknesse.
3If a man beget an hundreth children and liue many yeeres, and the dayes of his yeeres be multiplied, and his soule be not satisfied with good things, and he be not buried, I say that an vntimely fruite is better then he.
4For he commeth into vanitie and goeth into darkenesse: and his name shall be couered with darkenesse.
5Also he hath not seene ye sunne, nor knowen it: therefore this hath more rest then the other.
6And if he had liued a thousand yeeres twise tolde, and had seene no good, shall not all goe to one place?
7All the labour of man is for his mouth: yet the soule is not filled.
