Ecclesiastes 6:6-8

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁶ Although he lived two thousand years, and hath not enjoyed good things: do not all make haste to one place?

⁷ All the labour of man is for his mouth, but his soul shall not be filled.

⁸ What hath the wise man more than the fool? and what the poor man, but to go thither, where there is life?
