8 For what hath the wise more than the fool? what hath the poor, that knoweth to walk before the living?
9 Better [is] the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire: this [is] also vanity and vexation of spirit.
10 That which hath been is named already, and it is known that it [is] man: neither may he contend with him that is mightier than he.
11 Seeing there are many things that increase vanity, what [is] man the better?
12 For who knoweth what [is] good for man in [this] life, all the days of his vain life which he spendeth as a shadow? for who can tell a man what shall be after him under the sun?
