Ecclesiastes 6:5 in context

  1. 3If a man beget a hundred children, and live many years, so that the days of his years are many, but his soul be not filled with good, and moreover he have no burial; I say, that an untimely birth is better than he:
  2. 4for it cometh in vanity, and departeth in darkness, and the name thereof is covered with darkness;
  3. 5moreover it hath not seen the sun nor known it; this hath rest rather than the other:
  4. 6yea, though he live a thousand years twice told, and yet enjoy no good, do not all go to one place?
  5. 7All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.
