Ecclesiastes 4:8
New International Version
8 There was a man all alone;
he had neither son nor brother.

“and why am I depriving myself of enjoyment?”

King James Version
8 There is one alone, and there is not a second; yea, he hath neither child nor brother: yet is there no end of all his labour; neither is his eye satisfied with riches; neither saith he, For whom do I labour, and bereave my soul of good? This is also vanity, yea, it is a sore travail.
