3 If a man begets one hundred, and lives many years, and is great, because they are the days of his years, and his soul is not satisfied from the goodness, and also he has not had a grave, I have said, “Better than he [is] the untimely birth.”

4 For in vanity he came in, and in darkness he goes, and in darkness his name is covered,

5 even the sun he has not seen nor known, more rest has this than that.
