Ecclesiastes 5:16 This too is a grievous evil: As everyone comes, so they depart, and what do they gain, since they toil for the wind?

................................................................................
This too is a grievous evil: As everyone comes, so they depart, and what do they gain, since they toil for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
And this, too, is a very serious problem. People leave this world no better off than when they came. All their hard work is for nothing--like working for the wind.
................................................................................

................................................................................
This also is a grievous evil: just as he came, so shall he go, and what gain is there to him who toils for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
This also is a grievous evil-- exactly as a man is born, thus will he die. So what is the advantage to him who toils for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
This too is a sickening tragedy: exactly as he comes, so he will go. What does the one gain who struggles for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
This is also a painful tragedy: However a person comes, he also departs; so what does he gain as he labors after the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
This is another misfortune: Just as he came, so will he go. What did he gain from toiling for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
This also is a painful tragedy: They leave exactly as they came. What advantage do they gain from working so hard for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
And this also is a great evil, that just as he came, so shall he go: and what profit has he who has labored for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
And this also is a sore evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit hath he that hath laboured for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
And this also is a sore evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit has he that has labored for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
And this also is a grievous evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit hath he that he laboreth for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
And this again is a great evil, that in all points as he came so will he go; and what profit has he in working for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
A most deplorable evil: as he came, so shall he return. What then doth it profit him that he hath laboured for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
And this also is a grievous evil, that in all points as he came so doth he go away, and what profit hath he, in having laboured for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
And this also is a grievous evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit hath he that he laboureth for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
And this also is a grievous evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit hath he that hath labored for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
This also is a grievous evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go. And what profit does he have who labors for the wind?
................................................................................

................................................................................
And this also is a painful evil, just as he came, so he goeth, and what advantage is to him who laboureth for wind?
