Ecclesiastes 6:9-11

Common English Bible

⁹ It’s better to enjoy what’s at hand than to have an insatiable appetite. This too is pointless, just wind chasing.

¹⁰ Whatever happens has already been designated, and human beings are fully known. They can’t contend with the one who is stronger than they are. ¹¹ Because the more words increase, the more everything is pointless. What do people gain by it?
