Ecclesiastes 2:25
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For apart from Him, who can eat and who can find enjoyment?
In context
23 Indeed, all his days are filled with grief, and his task is sorrowful; even at night, his mind does not rest. This too is futile.
24 Nothing is better for a man than to eat and drink and enjoy his work. I have also seen that this is from the hand of God.
25 For apart from Him, who can eat and who can find enjoyment?
26 To the man who is pleasing in His sight, He gives wisdom and knowledge and joy, but to the sinner He assigns the task of gathering and accumulating that which he will hand over to one who pleases God. This too is futile and a pursuit of the wind.
