King James Version with Apocrypha
"All his days also he eateth in darkness, and he hath much sorrow and wrath with his sickness."
— Ecclesiastes 5:17, King James Version with Apocrypha
“All his days also he eateth in darkness, and he hath much sorrow and wrath with his sickness.”
“All his days also he eateth in darkness, and he is sore vexed, and hath sickness and wrath. ”
“All his days he also eats in darkness, he is frustrated, and has sickness and wrath.”
“Surely, he ate in darkness every day of his life, and he suffered greatly with sickness and anger.”
“This therefore hath seemed good to me, that a man should eat and drink, and enjoy the fruit of his labour, wherewith he hath laboured under the sun, all the days of his life, which God hath given him: and this is his portion.”
“All his days are in the dark, and he has much sorrow, pain, disease, and trouble.”
But those riches perish by evil travail: and he begetteth a son, and there is nothing in his hand.
As he came forth of his mother’s womb, naked shall he return to go as he came, and shall take nothing of his labour, which he may carry away in his hand.
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?
All his days also he eateth in darkness, and he hath much sorrow and wrath with his sickness.
Behold that which I have seen: it is good and comely for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labour that he taketh under the sun all the days of his life, which God giveth him: for it is his portion.
Every man also to whom God hath given riches and wealth, and hath given him power to eat thereof, and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labour; this is the gift of God.
For he shall not much remember the days of his life; because God answereth him in the joy of his heart.
