Ecclesiastes 4:15-16 Amplified Bible (AMP)

15. I saw all the living who walk under the sun with the youth who was to stand up in the king's stead.

16. There was no end to all the people; he was over all of them. Yet those who come later will not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity (emptiness, falsity, vainglory) and a striving after the wind and a feeding on it.
