Ecclesiastes - ch 2 v 21 - 26
- For there is a man whose labour `is' in wisdom, and in knowledge, and in equity, and to a man who hath not laboured therein he giveth it -- his portion! Even this `is' vanity and a great evil.
- For what hath been to a man by all his labour, and by the thought of his heart that he laboured at under the sun?
- For all his days are sorrows, and his travail sadness; even at night his heart hath not lain down; this also `is' vanity.
- There is nothing good in a man who eateth, and hath drunk, and hath shewn his soul good in his labour. This also I have seen that it `is' from the hand of God.
- For who eateth and who hasteth out more than I?
- For to a man who `is' good before Him, He hath given wisdom, and knowledge, and joy; and to a sinner He hath given travail, to gather and to heap up, to give to the good before God. Even this `is' vanity and vexation of spirit.
