Ecclesiastes 5:14-16

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁴ As he came forth naked from his mother's womb, so shall he return, and shall take nothing away with him of his labour.

¹⁵ A most deplorable evil: as he came, so shall he return. What then doth it profit him that he hath laboured for the wind?

¹⁶ All the days of his life he eateth in darkness, and in many cares, and in misery, and sorrow.
