Ecclesiastes 6:8-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

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

⁹ Better it is to see what thou mayst desire, than to desire that which thou canst not know. But this also is vanity, and presumption of spirit.

¹⁰ He that shall be, his name is already called: and it is known, that he is man, and cannot contend in judgment with him that is stronger than himself.
