Ecclesiastes 6:3-5

3If a man fathers a hundred children and lives many years, so that the days of his years are many, but his soul is not satisfied with life's good things, and he also has no burial, I say that a stillborn child is better off than he.

4For it comes in vanity and goes in darkness, and in darkness its name is covered.

5Moreover, it has not seen the sun or known anything, yet it finds rest rather than he.
