Ecclesiastes:2:11-22-23
nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:11 @ Then I looked on all the works that my hands had done And on the labor in which I had toiled; And indeed all was vanity and grasping for the wind. There was no profit under the sun.
nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:12 @ Then I turned myself to consider wisdom and madness and folly; For what can the man do who succeeds the king?-- Only what he has already done.
nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:13 @ Then I saw that wisdom excels folly As light excels darkness.
nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:14 @ The wise man's eyes are in his head, But the fool walks in darkness. Yet I myself perceived That the same event happens to them all.
nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:15 @ So I said in my heart, "As it happens to the fool, It also happens to me, And why was I then more wise?" Then I said in my heart, "This also is vanity."
nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:16 @ For there is no more remembrance of the wise than of the fool forever, Since all that now is will be forgotten in the days to come. And how does a wise man die? As the fool!
nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:17 @ Therefore I hated life because the work that was done under the sun was distressing to me, for all is vanity and grasping for the wind.
nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:18 @ Then I hated all my labor in which I had toiled under the sun, because I must leave it to the man who will come after me.
nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:19 @ And who knows whether he will be wise or a fool? Yet he will rule over all my labor in which I toiled and in which I have shown myself wise under the sun. This also is vanity.
nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:20 @ Therefore I turned my heart and despaired of all the labor in which I had toiled under the sun.
nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:21 @ For there is a man whose labor is with wisdom, knowledge, and skill; yet he must leave his heritage to a man who has not labored for it. This also is vanity and a great evil.
nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:22 @ For what has man for all his labor, and for the striving of his heart with which he has toiled under the sun?
