Parallel Verses
NASB:
For to a person who is good in His sight He has given wisdom and knowledge and joy, while to the sinner He has given the task of gathering and collecting so that he may give to one who is good in God's sight. This too is vanity and striving after wind.
KJV:
For
God
giveth to a man that
is
good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he giveth travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to
him that is
good before God. This also
is
vanity and vexation of spirit.
