Ecclesiastes 5:13-15
1599 Geneva Bible
13 And these riches perish by evil travail, and he begetteth a son, and in his [a]hand is nothing.
14 (A)As he came forth of his mother’s belly, he shall return naked to go as he came, and shall bear away nothing of his labor, which he hath caused to pass by his hand.
15 And this also is an evil sickness, that in all points as he came, so shall he go, and what profit hath he that he hath travailed for the [b]wind?
