And I have hated all my labour that I labour at under the sun, because I leave it to a man who is after me.

For there is a man whose labour is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and in equity, and to a man who hath not laboured therein he giveth it -- his portion! Even this is vanity and a great evil.

For what hath been to a man by all his labour, and by the thought of his heart that he laboured at under the sun?

For to a man who is good before Him, He hath given wisdom, and knowledge, and joy; and to a sinner He hath given travail, to gather and to heap up, to give to the good before God. Even this is vanity and vexation of spirit.

A time to bring forth, And a time to die. A time to plant, And a time to eradicate the planted.

The wisdom giveth strength to a wise man, more than wealth the rulers who have been in a city.

But to him who is joined unto all the living there is confidence, for to a living dog it is better than to the dead lion.

If the serpent biteth without enchantment, Then there is no advantage to a master of the tongue.
