22. For what hath man of all his labor, and of the vexation of his heart, in which he hath labored under the sun?
23. For all his days are sorrows, and his labor grief; yes, his heart taketh not rest in the night. This is also vanity.
24. There is nothing better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labor. This also I saw, that it was from the hand of God.
25. For who can eat, or who else can hasten to it more than I?
26. For God giveth to a man who is good in his sight, wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he giveth toil, to gather, and to amass, that he may give to him that is good before God. This also is vanity and vexation of spirit.
