Ecclesiastes 6:5-11

⁵Moreover he has not seen the sun, nor known rest: there is no more rest to this one than another.

⁶Though he has lived to the return of a thousand years, yet he has seen no good: do not all go to one place?

⁷All the labour of a man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite shall not be satisfied.

⁸For what advantage has the wise man over the fool, since even the poor knows how to walk in the direction of life?

⁹The sight of the eyes is better than that which wanders in soul: this is also vanity, and waywardness of spirit.

¹⁰If anything has been, its name has already been called: and it is known what man is; neither can he contend with him who is stronger than he.

¹¹For there are many things which increase vanity.
