Ecclesiastes 6:1
| ← Ecclesiastes 5:20 | Ecclesiastes 6:1 (KJV) | Ecclesiastes 6:2 → |
|---|---|---|
For he shall not much remember the days of his life; because God answereth [him] in the joy of his heart.
|
There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it [is] common among men:
|
A man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honour, so that he wanteth nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet God giveth him not power to eat thereof, but a stranger eateth it: this [is] vanity, and it [is] an evil disease.
