"for it comes in vanity, and departs in darkness, and its name is covered with darkness."
— Ecclesiastes 6:4, World English Bible
“For he cometh in with vanity, and departeth in darkness, and his name shall be covered with darkness.”
“for it cometh in vanity, and departeth in darkness, and the name thereof is covered with darkness; ”
“Though the stillborn child came into the world for no reason and departed into darkness, though its name is shrouded in darkness,”
“For he came in vain, and goeth to darkness, and his name shall be wholly forgotten.”
“In wind it came and to the dark it will go, and with the dark will its name be covered.”
“For he cometh in with vanity, and departeth in darkness, and his name shall be covered with darkness.”
There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is heavy on men:
a man to whom God gives riches, wealth, and honor, so that he lacks nothing for his soul of all that he desires, yet God gives him no power to eat of it, but an alien eats it. This is vanity, and it is an evil disease.
If a man fathers a hundred children, and lives many years, so that the days of his years are many, but his soul is not filled with good, and moreover he has no burial; I say, that a stillborn child is better than he:
for it comes in vanity, and departs in darkness, and its name is covered with darkness.
Moreover it has not seen the sun nor known it. This has rest rather than the other.
Yes, though he live a thousand years twice told, and yet fails to enjoy good, don't all go to one place?
All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.
