Ecclesiastes 6:7-10 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

7. We struggle just to have enough to eat, but we are never satisfied.

8. We may be sensible, yet we are no better off than a fool. And if we are poor, it still doesn't do us any good to try to live right.

9. It's better to enjoy what we have than always to want something else, because that makes no more sense than chasing the wind.

10. Everything that happens was decided long ago. We humans know what we are like, and we can't argue with God, because he is too strong for us.
