Ecclesiastes 5:15-17
New American Standard Bible
15 (A)As he came naked from his mother’s womb, so he will return as he came. He will (B)take nothing from the fruit of his labor that he can carry in his hand. 16 This also is a sickening evil: exactly as a person [a]is born, so will he [b]die. (C)What then is the advantage for him who (D)labors for the wind? 17 All his life (E)he also eats in darkness with (F)great irritation, sickness, and anger.
