Ecclesiastes 4:6-8

English Standard Version Anglicised

^6 (A)Better is a handful of ^(B)quietness than two hands full of toil and a striving after wind.

^7 (C)Again, I saw vanity under the sun: ⁸ one person who has no other, either son or brother, yet there is no end to all his toil, and his ^(D)eyes are never satisfied with riches, so that he never asks, ^(E)“For whom am I toiling and depriving myself of pleasure?” This also is vanity and an unhappy ^(F)business.
