Ecclesiastes 5:10-17
10He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver, nor he that loveth abundanceH7235 with increaseH7235. This also is vanity.
11When goods increaseH7235, they are increasedH7235 that eatH398 them; and what profit is there to the owner thereof, except the beholding [of them] with his eyes?
12The sleep of the labourer is sweet, whether he have eaten little or much; but the fulness of the richH6239 doth not suffer him to sleep.
13There is a grievous evilH7451 that I have seen under the sun: richesH6239 kept for the owners thereof to their hurt;
14or those riches perish by some evil circumstance, and if he have begotten a son, there is nothing in his handH3027.
15As he cameH935 forth from his mother's womb, naked shall he goH935 away again as he cameH935, and shall take nothing of his labour, which he may carry away in his hand.
16And this alsoH1571 is a grievous evil, that in all points as he came so doth he go away, and what profit hath he, in having laboured for the wind?
17All his daysH3117 also he eateth in darkness, and hath much vexation, and sickness, and irritation.
