Ecclesiastes 2:18-21
English Standard Version
The Vanity of Toil
18 I hated (A)all my toil in which I toil under the sun, seeing that I must (B)leave it to the man who will come after me, 19 and who knows whether he will be wise or a fool? Yet he will be master of all for which I toiled and used my wisdom under the sun. This also is vanity. 20 So I (C)turned about and gave my heart up to despair (D)over all the toil of my labors under the sun, 21 because sometimes a person who has toiled with wisdom and knowledge and skill must leave everything to be enjoyed by someone who did not toil for it. This also is vanity and a great evil.
