King James Version
"For what hath the wise more than the fool? what hath the poor, that knoweth to walk before the living?"
— Ecclesiastes 6:8, King James Version
“For what advantage hath the wise more than the fool? or what hath the poor man, that knoweth how to walk before the living? ”
“For what advantage has the wise more than the fool? What has the poor man, that knows how to walk before the living?”
“So what advantage does a wise man have over a fool? And what advantage does a pauper gain by knowing how to survive?”
“What hath the wise man more than the fool? and what the poor man, but to go thither, where there is life?”
“What have the wise more than the foolish? and what has the poor man by walking wisely before the living?”
“For what hath the wise more than the fool? what hath the poor, that knoweth to walk before the living?”
Moreover he hath not seen the sun, nor known any thing: this hath more rest than the other.
Yea, though he live a thousand years twice told, yet hath he seen no good: do not all go to one place?
All the labour of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.
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?
