21 For when someone labors in wisdom, and doctrine, and prudence, he leaves behind what he has obtained to one who is idle. So this, too, is emptiness and a great burden.
22 For how can a man benefit from all his labor and affliction of spirit, by which he has been tormented under the sun?
23 All his days have been filled with sorrows and hardships; neither does he rest his mind, even in the night. And is this not emptiness?
24 Is it not better to eat and drink, and to show his soul the good things of his labors? And this is from the hand of God.
25 So who will feast and overflow with delights as much as I have?
