Ecclesiastes 6:5-7
New International Version
5 Though it never saw the sun or knew anything, it has more rest than does that man— 6 even if he lives a thousand years twice over but fails to enjoy his prosperity. Do not all go to the same place?(A)
7 Everyone’s toil is for their mouth,
yet their appetite is never satisfied.(B)
