Legacy Standard Bible

¹⁴ And those riches were lost through a bad endeavor; and he became the father of a son, but there was nothing in his hand for him. ^15 (A)As he had come naked from his mother’s womb, so will he return as he came. He will ^(B)carry nothing from the fruit of his labor that he can bring in his hand. ¹⁶ This also is a sickening evil—exactly as a man came, so will he go. So ^(C)what is the advantage to him who ^(D)labors for the wind?
