Ecclesiastes 5:15-17

Complete Jewish Bible

^15 (16) This too is a gross evil, that in every respect as he came, so will he go; thus what profit does he have after toiling to earn the wind? ^16 (17) All his life he eats in darkness, in frustration, in sickness and in anger.

^17 (18) This is what I have seen to be good: that it is appropriate for a person to eat, drink and enjoy the good that results from all his work that he engages in under the sun for all the days of his life that God has given him, for this is his allotted portion.
