'Done' in the Bible

What does a man get for all his work, and for the weight of care with which he has done his work under the sun?

Then I saw all the work of God, and that man may not get knowledge of the work which is done under the sun; because, if a man gives hard work to the search he will not get knowledge, and even if the wise man seems to be coming to the end of his search, still he will be without knowledge.
