Ecclesiastes 4:4-8
4I saw that all labor and success spring from a man’s envy of his neighbor. This too is futile and a pursuit of the wind.
5The fool folds his handsand consumes his own flesh.6Better one handful with tranquilitythan two handfuls with toil and pursuit of the wind.
7Again, I saw futility under the sun. 8There is a man all alone, without even a son or brother. And though there is no end to his labor, his eyes are still not content with his wealth: “For whom do I toil and bereave my soul of enjoyment?” This too is futile—a miserable task.
