Ecclesiastes 2:23-26 Modern English Version (MEV)

23. For all his days are sorrowful, and his work is a vexation; even at night his heart finds no rest. Also this is fleeting.

24. There is nothing better for a man than to eat and drink, and find enjoyment in his labor. This also, I saw, is from the hand of God.

25. For who can even eat or have enjoyment more so than I?

26. For to a man who is pleasing before Him, God gives wisdom, knowledge, and joy; but to the sinner He gives the work of gathering and collecting to give him who is pleasing before God. Also this is vanity and chasing the wind.
