Ecclesiastes 6:8-10

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁸ For what has the wise more than the fool? what more has the poor that knows how to walk among the living?

⁹ It is better to enjoy the good that is present than the wandering of desire; this is also vanity and vexation of spirit.

¹⁰ He that is has been named already; and it is known that he is man and that he shall not be able to contend with him that is mightier than he.
