Ecclesiastes 2:19-21

American Standard Version

¹⁹ And who knoweth whether he will be a wise man or a fool? yet will he have rule over all my labor wherein I have labored, and wherein I have showed myself wise under the sun. This also is vanity. ²⁰ Therefore I turned about to cause my heart to despair concerning all the labor wherein I had labored under the sun. ²¹ For there is a man whose labor is with wisdom, and with knowledge, and with ^[a]skilfulness; yet to a man that hath not labored therein shall he ^[b]leave it for his portion. This also is vanity and a great evil.
