Ecclesiastes 4:13-16 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

13. Better is a poor and wise youth than an old and foolish king, who hath not known to be warned any more.

14. For from a house of prisoners he hath come out to reign, for even in his own kingdom he hath been poor.

15. I have seen all the living, who are walking under the sun, with the second youth who doth stand in his place;

16. there is no end to all the people, to all who were before them; also, the latter rejoice not in him. Surely this also is vanity and vexation of spirit.
