American King James Version
" There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is common among men: "
— Ecclesiastes 6:1, American King James Version
“There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is common among men:”
“There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is heavy upon men: ”
“There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is heavy on men:”
“Not Everyone Enjoys Life Here is another misfortune that I have seen on earth, and it weighs heavily on people:”
“There is also another evil, which I have seen under the sun, and that frequent among men:”
“There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is hard on men;”
“There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is common among men:”
There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is common among men:
A man to whom God has given riches, wealth, and honor, so that he wants nothing for his soul of all that he desires, yet God gives him not power to eat thereof, but a stranger eats it: this is vanity, and it is an evil disease. ¶
If a man beget an hundred children, and live many years, so that the days of his years be many, and his soul be not filled with good, and also that he have no burial; I say, that an untimely birth is better than he.
For he comes in with vanity, and departs in darkness, and his name shall be covered with darkness.
