For who can eat and who can have enjoyment without Him?

Furthermore, if two lie down together they keep warm, but how can one be warm alone?

And if one can overpower him who is alone, two can resist him. A cord of three strands is not quickly torn apart.

As he had come naked from his mother’s womb, so will he return as he came. He will take nothing from the fruit of his labor that he can carry in his hand.

For who knows what is good for a man during his lifetime, during the few years of his futile life? He will spend them like a shadow. For who can tell a man what will be after him under the sun?

What has been is remote and exceedingly mysterious. Who can discover it?

If no one knows what will happen, who can tell him when it will happen?

Yet the fool multiplies words. No man knows what will happen, and who can tell him what will come after him?
