Ecclesiastes 6:6-8

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁶ even if that man would live a thousand years two times without enjoying good things. They all go to the same place, don’t they?

⁷ All of a man’s hard work is to feed his mouth, but his appetite^[a] never feels satisfied.

⁸ So what advantage does a wise man have over a fool? What advantage does a poor man gain, who knows how to keep walking among the living?^[b]
