Ecclesiastes 6:9-11

New American Standard Bible

⁹ What the eyes ^(A)see is better than what the soul ^[a]desires. This too is ^(B)futility and striving after wind.

¹⁰ Whatever ^(C)exists has already been named, and it is known what man is; for he ^(D)cannot dispute with the ^[b]one who is mightier than he is. ¹¹ For there are many words which increase futility. What then is the advantage to a person?
