ECCLESIASTES

Ecclesiastes 6

1There is also another evil, which I have seen under the sun, and that frequent among men:
Ecclesiastes 5:13, Ecclesiastes 5:13
2A man to whom God hath given riches, and substance, and honour, and his soul wanteth nothing of all that he desireth: yet God doth not give him power to eat thereof, but a stranger shall eat it up. This is vanity and a great misery.
Ecclesiastes 5:19, Ecclesiastes 5:19, Psalms 17:14, Psalms 17:14, Psalms 73:7
3If a man beget a hundred children, and live many years, and attain to a great age, and his soul make no use of the goods of his substance, and he be without burial: of this man I pronounce, that the untimely born is better than he.
Job 3:16, Job 3:16, Ecclesiastes 4:3, 2 Kings 9:35, Jeremiah 22:19
4For he came in vain, and goeth to darkness, and his name shall be wholly forgotten.
Psalms 109:13, Psalms 109:13
5He hath not seen the sun, nor known the distance of good and evil:
Psalms 58:8, Job 3:10, Job 3:13, Psalms 90:7, Psalms 90:9
6Although he lived two thousand years, and hath not enjoyed good things: do not all make haste to one place?
Ecclesiastes 3:20, Ecclesiastes 3:20, Job 30:23, Hebrews 9:27, Job 30:23
7All the labour of man is for his mouth, but his soul shall not be filled.
John 6:27, John 6:27, Proverbs 16:26, Proverbs 16:26, 1 Timothy 6:6
8What hath the wise man more than the fool? and what the poor man, but to go thither, where there is life?
Ecclesiastes 2:14, Ecclesiastes 2:16, Proverbs 19:1, Ecclesiastes 2:14, Ecclesiastes 2:16
9Better it is to see what thou mayst desire, than to desire that which thou canst not know. But this also is vanity, and presumption of spirit.
Ecclesiastes 1:14, Ecclesiastes 1:14, Job 31:7, Job 31:7, Ecclesiastes 1:2
10He that shall be, his name is already called: and it is known, that he is a man, and cannot contend in judgment with him that is stronger than himself.
Job 9:32, Job 9:32, Isaiah 45:9, Isaiah 45:10, Isaiah 45:9
11There are many words that have much vanity in disputing.
Ecclesiastes 4:16, Ecclesiastes 4:16, Ecclesiastes 5:7, Ecclesiastes 5:7, Ecclesiastes 1:17
