Ecclesiastes 5:15-17
English Standard Version
15 (A)As he came from his mother's womb he shall go again, naked as he came, and shall take nothing for his toil that he may carry away in his hand. 16 This also is a grievous evil: just as he came, so shall he go, and what (B)gain is there to him who (C)toils for the wind? 17 Moreover, all his days he (D)eats in darkness in much vexation and sickness and anger.

Ecclesiastes 5:15-17
New International Version
15 Everyone comes naked from their mother’s womb,
and as everyone comes, so they depart.(A)
They take nothing from their toil(B)
that they can carry in their hands.(C)
16 This too is a grievous evil:
As everyone comes, so they depart,
and what do they gain,
since they toil for the wind?(D)
17 All their days they eat in darkness,
with great frustration, affliction and anger.
