Ecclesiastes 2:22-24

Ecclesiastes 2:22-24
New International Version
22 What do people get for all the toil and anxious striving with which they labor under the sun?(A) 23 All their days their work is grief and pain;(B) even at night their minds do not rest.(C) This too is meaningless.
24 A person can do nothing better than to eat and drink(D) and find satisfaction in their own toil.(E) This too, I see, is from the hand of God,(F)
