6As well their love, as their hatred and their envy, is perished long ago; neither have they any more a portion for ever in anything that is done under the sun.

14The wise man's eyes are in his head, and the fool walketh in darkness: and yet I perceived that one event happeneth to them all.

23For all his days are [but] sorrows, and his travail is grief; yea, even in the night his heart taketh no rest. This also is vanity.
