Ecclesiastes 6:1
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
There is another evil I have seen under the sun, and it weighs heavily upon mankind:
In context
1 There is another evil I have seen under the sun, and it weighs heavily upon mankind:
2 God gives a man riches, wealth, and honor, so that he lacks nothing his heart desires; but God does not allow him to enjoy them. Instead, a stranger will enjoy them. This is futile and a grievous affliction.
3 A man may father a hundred children and live for many years; yet no matter how long he lives, if he is unsatisfied with his prosperity and does not even receive a proper burial, I say that a stillborn child is better off than he.
