Ecclesiastes 4:1-3

Amplified Bible

The Evils of Oppression

4 Then I looked again and considered all the acts of oppression that were being practiced under the sun. And behold I saw the tears of the oppressed and they had no one to comfort them; and on the side of their oppressors was power, but they had no one to comfort them. ² So I congratulated and thought more fortunate are those who are already dead than the living who are still living. ³ But better off than either of them is the one who has not yet been born, who has not seen the evil deeds that are done under the sun.
