King James Version
"Seeing there be many things that increase vanity, what is man the better?"
— Ecclesiastes 6:11, King James Version
“Seeing there are many things that increase vanity, what is man the better? ”
“For there are many words that create vanity. What does that profit man?”
“The more one argues with words, the less he accomplishes. How does that benefit him?”
“There are many words that have much vanity in disputing. ”
“There are words without number for increasing what is to no purpose, but what is man profited by them?”
“Seeing there be many things that increase vanity, what is man the better?”
For what hath the wise more than the fool? what hath the poor, that knoweth to walk before the living?
Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire: this is also vanity and vexation of spirit.
That which hath been is named already, and it is known that it is man: neither may he contend with him that is mightier than he.
Seeing there be many things that increase vanity, what is man the better?
For who knoweth what is good for man in this life, all the days of his vain life which he spendeth as a shadow? for who can tell a man what shall be after him under the sun?
