CLV(i)
18 And I hated all my toil that I was toiling under the sun, That I would leave to the man who shall come after me."
19 Who knows if he shall be a wise or a frivolous man? Yet he shall have authority over all the fruit of my toil that I toiled, And in which I was wise under the sun; This too is vanity."
20 So I turned around again with despair in my heart Over all the toil that I had toiled under the sun.
21 For there is a man whose toil is in wisdom and in knowledge and in success, Yet to another man who has not toiled for it, he must give it as his portion; This too is vanity and a great evil."
22 For what is coming to a man for all his toil, And for the grazing of his heart which he is toiling under the sun?
23 For all his days his experience is filled with pains and vexation; Even in the night his heart will not lie down; This too, it is vanity."
