Thematic Bible: Worldly, sometimes disappointing
Thematic Bible
Labour » fields of activity » Worldly, sometimes disappointing
When I considered all that I had accomplished and what I had labored to achieve, I found everything to be futile and a pursuit of the wind. There was nothing to be gained under the sun.
and your wages on what does not satisfy?
Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good,
and you will enjoy the choicest of foods.
There is a person without a companion, without even a son or brother, and though there is no end to all his struggles, his eyes are still not content with riches. “So who am I struggling for,” he asks, “and depriving myself from good?” This too is futile and a miserable task.
I have seen all the things that are done under the sun and have found everything to be futile, a pursuit of the wind.
This too is a sickening tragedy: exactly as he comes, so he will go. What does the one gain who struggles for the wind?
that the peoples labor only to fuel the fire
and countries exhaust themselves for nothing?
