Ecclesiastes 6:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 All the labor of man is for his mouth: yet the [a]soul is not filled.
8 For what hath the wise man more than the fool? what hath the poor that [b]knoweth how to walk before the living?
9 The [c]sight of the eye is better than to walk in the lusts: this also is vanity, and vexation of spirit.
