14. Then he loses it all in a bad deal.So he has nothingto give to his son.
15. A person comes into this world with nothing.And when he dies, he leaves with nothing.In spite of all his hard work,he leaves exactly as he came.
16. This, too, is unfair:He leaves exactly as he came.So what does he gain from chasing the wind?
17. All he gets are days filled with sadness and sorrow.He ends up sick, defeated and angry.
18. I have seen what is best for a person to do here on earth. He should eat and drink and enjoy his work. This is because the life God has given him on earth is short.
19. God gives some people the ability to enjoy the wealth and property he gives them. He also gives them the ability to accept their state in life and enjoy their work.
20. Such people do not worry much about how short life is. This is because God keeps them busy with the things they love to do.
