Ecclesiastes 6:6-8

Common English Bible

⁶ who live a thousand years twice over but don’t enjoy life’s good things. Isn’t everyone heading to the same destination? ⁷ All the hard work of humans is for the mouth, but the appetite is never full. ⁸ What advantage do the wise have over the foolish? Or what do the poor gain by knowing how to conduct themselves before the living?
