Hoarding Wealth Can Backfire

Hoarding Wealth Can Backfire

13 There is a grievous evil which I have seen under the sun: wealth ⌊hoarded⌋[fn] by its owner to his harm. 14 That wealth was lost in a bad venture. Although he has borne a child, ⌊he has nothing to leave to him⌋.[fn] 15 Just as he came from his mother’s womb naked, ⌊he will depart⌋[fn] just as he came; he will take nothing with him for his toil. 16 This also is a grievous illness. Exactly as he came, so he will go. What profit does he gain for all his toil for the wind? 17 Also, he eats in darkness all his days; he is frustrated in much sickness and resentment.


5:13 Literally “kept ”

5:14 Literally “he has nothing in his hand”

5:15 Literally “return to go”
