Ecclesiastes 5:10-17

10When goods increase, so do those who consume them. So what advantage are they to the owner except he sees it with his eyes?

11The sleep of the laborer is sweet, whether he eats little or much— but the excess of the rich permits him no sleep.

12There is a grievous wrong that I have seen under the sun: wealth hoarded by its owner to his own hurt,

13or wealth lost in a bad investment, and when he fathers a son, there is nothing in his hand.

14As he came from his mother’s womb, naked he will return as he came. He takes nothing from his labor that he can carry in his hand.

15This too is a grievous wrong. Just as he came, so will he go, so what does he gain, from his toiling for the wind?

16So, all his days he eats in darkness, and he has much grief, sickness, and humiliation.

17Behold, this is what I myself have seen. It is beneficial and good for one to eat and drink, and to enjoy all of his toil that he labors under the sun during the few days of his life that God has given him—for this is his reward.
