21 For there is a man whose toil is with wisdom and with knowledge and with skill, and to a man not having toiled for it he must give his portion. This also is vapor and a great evil. 22 For what has been for the man for all his toil and for the striving of his heart, with which he toils under the sun? 23 For all his days are pains, and anger is his task; even in the night his heart will not find rest. This also is vapor. 24 Nothing is better for the man than to eat and drink, and his soul to see good in his toil. This also I saw, that it is from the hand of God; 25 for who can eat, and who can enjoy, apart from Him? 26 For to the man who is good in His eyes, He gives wisdom and knowledge and joy; and to the sinner He gives the task to gather and to heap up, to give to the good before the face of God. This also is vapor, and a striving after the wind. Ecclesiastes 2:21-26, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
