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?
8 For what more has the wise man than the fool?
What does the poor man have,
Who knows how to walk before the living?
What does the poor man have,
Who knows how to walk before the living?
9 Better is1 the asight of the eyes than the wandering of2 desire.
This also is vanity and grasping for the wind.
This also is vanity and grasping for the wind.
