Ecclesiastes 5:10-17

10The one who loves silver is never satisfied with silver, and whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with income. This too is futile.

11When good things increase, the ones who consume them multiply; what, then, is the profit to the owner, except to gaze at them with his eyes?

12The sleep of the worker is sweet, whether he eats little or much, but the abundance of the rich permits him no sleep.

13There is a sickening tragedy I have seen under the sun: wealth kept by its owner to his harm.

14That wealth was lost in a bad venture, so when he fathered a son, he was empty-handed.

15As he came from his mother’s womb, so he will go again, naked as he came; he will take nothing for his efforts that he can carry in his hands.

16This too is a sickening tragedy: exactly as he comes, so he will go. What does the one gain who struggles for the wind?

17What is more, he eats in darkness all his days, with much frustration, sickness, and anger.
