Worldly Good Life

King Solomon

So I hated life, for the work which had been done under the sun was grievous to me; because everything is

futility and striving after wind.

Eccl 2:17

So I congratulated the dead who are already dead more than the

living who are still living. 3 But better off than both

of them is the one who has never existed, who has never

seen the evil activity that is done under the sun.
