Ecclesiastes 5:12-14

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

¹² The sleep of the worker is sweet, whether he eats little or much, but the abundance of the rich permits him no sleep.

¹³ There is a sickening tragedy I have seen under the sun: wealth kept by its owner to his harm.^{(A) 14} That wealth was lost in a bad venture, so when he fathered a son, he was empty-handed.
