3 If a man begets a hundred children and lives many years, so that the days of his years are many, but his soul is not satisfied with goodness, or aindeed he has no burial, I say that ba stillborn child is better than he—
4 for it comes in vanity and departs in darkness, and its name is covered with darkness.
5 Though it has not seen the sun or known anything, this has more rest than that man,
6 even if he lives a thousand years twice—but has not seen goodness. Do not all go to one aplace?
