Ecclesiastes 6:3-5

The Voice

³ If a person has one hundred children and lives for many years but finds no satisfaction in all of the good things that life brings and in the end doesn’t have a proper burial, I say that it would be better if that person had been stillborn ⁴ because the stillborn arrives in a fleeting breath and then goes nameless into the darkness mourned by no one and buried in an unmarked grave. ⁵ Though the child never sees the sun or knows anything, it still had more rest than the person who cannot enjoy what he has.
