Ecclesiastes 6:4

New Living Translation

⁴His birth would have been meaningless, and he would have ended in darkness. He wouldn’t even have had a name,

Ecclesiastes 6:4

New International Version

⁴It comes without meaning, it departs in darkness, and in darkness its name is shrouded.

⁴For he cometh in with vanity, and departeth in darkness, and his name shall be covered with darkness.

⁵and he would never have seen the sun or known of its existence. Yet he would have had more peace than in growing up to be an unhappy man.

⁵Though it never saw the sun or knew anything, it has more rest than does that man—

⁵Moreover he hath not seen the sun, nor known any thing: this hath more rest than the other.
