Ecclesiastes 5:9-14 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

9. Moreover the profit of the earth is for all: the king himself is served from the field.

10. He that loves silver shall not be satisfied with silver; nor he that loves abundance, with increase: this is also vanity.

11. When goods increase, they are increased that eat them: so what good is there to the owners, except the beholding of them with their eyes?

12. The sleep of a laboring man is sweet, whether he eats little or much: but the abundance of the rich will not allow him to sleep.

13. There is a great evil which I have seen under the sun, namely, riches kept by their owners to their hurt.

14. But those riches are lost by a bad venture: when he begets a son, there is nothing in his hand.
