Ecclesiastes 4:1-4 So I returned, and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun. And behold the tears of the oppressed ones, and they had no comforter! And on the side of those who oppressed them there was power, but they had no comforter.

MKJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ So I returned, and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun. And behold the tears of the oppressed ones, and they had no comforter! And on the side of those who oppressed them there was power, but they had no comforter. ² And I commended the dead who already have died, more than the living who are living now. ³ Yea, better than both is he who has not yet been, who has not seen the evil work that is done under the sun. ⁴ Again, I considered all labor, and every right work, that for this a man is envied by his neighbor. This is also vanity and vexation of spirit.
