Ecclesiastes 5:15-17

English Standard Version

^15 (A)As he came from his mother's womb he shall go again, naked as he came, and shall take nothing for his toil that he may carry away in his hand. ¹⁶ This also is a grievous evil: just as he came, so shall he go, and what ^(B)gain is there to him who ^(C)toils for the wind? ¹⁷ Moreover, all his days he ^(D)eats in darkness in much vexation and sickness and anger.
