1 Then I returned and saw all the oppressions that are done under the sun: and behold, the tears of such as were oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors there was power, but they had no comforter.

2 Wherefore I praised the dead which are already dead more than the living which are yet alive;

3 yea, better than them both did I esteem him which hath not yet been, who hath not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.
