Ecclesiastes 4:6-9 Modern English Version (MEV)

6. Better is a full hand of quietnessthan handfuls of toil and chasing the wind.

7. Again, I saw vanity under the sun:

8. There is a man who is alone,neither having son or brother,and there is not an end to all his toil,and his eyes are not satisfied with riches to say,“For whom do I laborand cause my life to lack good things?”Also this is vanityand a burdensome task.

9. Two are better than one,because there is a good reward for their labor together.
