Ecclesiastes 6:6-8
New King James Version

6 even if he lives a thousand years twice—but has not seen goodness. Do not all go to one (A)place?

7 (B)All the labor of man is for his mouth,
And yet the soul is not satisfied.
8 For what more has the wise man than the fool?
What does the poor man have,
Who knows how to walk before the living?

    yet their appetite is never satisfied.(B)

What do the poor gain
