NASB
""Even if the other man lives a thousand years twice and does not enjoy good things--do not all go to one place?""
— Ecclesiastes 6:6, NASB
“Yea, though he live a thousand years twice told, yet hath he seen no good: do not all go to one place?”
“yea, though he live a thousand years twice told, and yet enjoy no good, do not all go to one place? ”
“Yes, though he live a thousand years twice told, and yet fails to enjoy good, don't all go to one place?”
“if he should live a thousand years twice, yet does not enjoy his prosperity. For both of them die!”
“Although he lived two thousand years, and hath not enjoyed good things: do not all make haste to one place?”
“And though he goes on living a thousand years twice over and does not see good, are not the two going to the same place?”
“Yea, though he live a thousand years twice told, yet hath he seen no good: do not all go to one place?”
If a man fathers a hundred children and lives many years, however many they be, but his soul is not satisfied with good things and he does not even have a proper burial, then I say, "Better the miscarriage than he,
for it comes in futility and goes into obscurity; and its name is covered in obscurity.
"It never sees the sun and it never knows anything; it is better off than he.
"Even if the other man lives a thousand years twice and does not enjoy good things--do not all go to one place?"
All a man's labor is for his mouth and yet the appetite is not satisfied.
For what advantage does the wise man have over the fool? What advantage does the poor man have, knowing how to walk before the living?
What the eyes see is better than what the soul desires. This too is futility and a striving after wind.
