And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

15 I saw all the living who walk under the sun;
They were with the second youth who stands in his place.
They were with the second youth who stands in his place.
16 There was no end of all the people1 over whom he was made king;
Yet those who come afterward will not rejoice in him.
Surely this also is vanity and grasping for the wind.
Yet those who come afterward will not rejoice in him.
Surely this also is vanity and grasping for the wind.
