Ecclesiastes 5:16

New International Version
This too is a grievous evil:
As everyone comes, so they depart,
and what do they gain,
since they toil for the wind?
-
And this also is a sore evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit hath he that hath laboured for the wind?
-
And this also is a severe evil —
Just exactly as he came, so shall he go.
And what profit has he who has labored for the wind? -

This also is a grievous evil — exactly as a man is born, thus will he die. So what is the advantage to him who toils for the wind? -
And this, too, is a very serious problem. People leave this world no better off than when they came. All their hard work is for nothing — like working for the wind.
