Ecclesiastes 4:4-6
New Living Translation

4 Then I observed that most people are motivated to success because they envy their neighbors. But this, too, is meaningless—like chasing the wind.

5 “Fools fold their idle hands,
    leading them to ruin.”

6 And yet,

    than two handfuls with hard work
    and chasing the wind.”
