2 And I am praising the dead who have already died above the living who are yet alive.
3 And better than both of them 'is' he who hath not yet been, in that he hath not seen the evil work that hath been done under the sun.
4 And I have seen all the labour, and all the benefit of the work, because for it a man is the envy of his neighbour. Even this 'is' vanity and vexation of spirit.
5 The fool is clasping his hands, and eating his own flesh:
6 'Better 'is' a handful 'with' quietness, than two handfuls 'with' labour and vexation of spirit.'
