¹¹ Thus I turned to all my works which my hands had done and the labor which I had labored to do, and behold, all was ^[a](A)vanity and striving after wind, and there was ^(B)no advantage under the sun.

¹⁷ So I ^(A)hated life, for the work which had been done under the sun was ^[a]grievous to me; because everything is vanity and striving after wind.

⁴ I have seen that every labor and every ^(A)success of the work is the result of jealousy between a man and his neighbor. This too is ^[a](B)vanity and striving after wind.

⁹ What the eyes ^(A)see is better than what the soul goes after. This too is ^(B)vanity and striving after wind.
