Ecclesiastes 5:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 The sleep of him that travaileth, is sweet, whether he eat little or much: but the [a]satiety of the rich will not suffer him to sleep.
12 There is an evil sickness that I have seen under the sun: to wit, riches [b]reserved to the owners thereof for their evil.
13 And these riches perish by evil travail, and he begetteth a son, and in his [c]hand is nothing.
