Ecclesiastes 6:8-10

⁸For what advantage hath the wise more than the fool? or what hath the poor man, that knoweth how to walk before the living?

⁹Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire: this also is vanity and a striving after wind.

¹⁰Whatsoever hath been, the name thereof was given long ago; and it is known what man is; neither can he contend with him that is mightier than he.
