Ecclesiastes 2:18-23

The Anxiety of Labor and Inheritance

Ecclesiastes 2:18-23
18
And I have hated all my labour that I labour at under the sun, because I leave it to a man who is after me.
19
And who knoweth whether he is wise or foolish? yet he doth rule over all my labour that I have laboured at, and that I have done wisely under the sun! this also is vanity.
20
And I turned round to cause my heart to despair concerning all the labour that I laboured at under the sun.
21
For there is a man whose labour is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and in equity, and to a man who hath not laboured therein he giveth it--his portion! Even this is vanity and a great evil.
22
For what hath been to a man by all his labour, and by the thought of his heart that he laboured at under the sun?
23
For all his days are sorrows, and his travail sadness; even at night his heart hath not lain down; this also is vanity.
