Ecclesiastes 4:1-3
1So I returnedH7725, and consideredH7200 all the oppressionsH6217 that are doneH6213 under the sunH8121: and behold the tearsH1832 of such as were oppressedH6231, and they had no comforterH5162; and on the sideH3027 of their oppressorsH6231 there was powerH3581; but they had no comforterH5162.1
2Wherefore I praisedH7623 the deadH4191 which are alreadyH3528 deadH4191 more than the livingH2416 which are yetH5728 aliveH2416.
3Yea, betterH2896 is he than bothH8147 they, which hath not yetH5728 been, who hath not seenH7200 the evilH7451 workH4639 that is doneH6213 under the sunH8121.
