Ecclesiastes 6:3-5

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

³ A man may beget a hundred children, and live for many years; but however many are the days of his years, if he does not enjoy life’s good things, or has no burial, I say that a stillborn child is better off than he. ⁴ For it comes into vanity and goes into darkness, and in darkness its name is covered; ⁵ moreover, it has not seen the sun or known anything; yet it finds rest rather than he.
