Death Deprives Humans of Everything in Life

Death Deprives Humans of Everything in Life

4Whoever is joined[fn] to all the living has hope. After all, even a live dog is better than a dead lion! 5For the living know that they will die, but the dead do not know anything. They no longer have a reward, and even the memory of them is forgotten. 6What they loved and hated, as well as what they desired, has already perished. They no longer have any share in what is done under the sun.


9:4 The Kethib reads “chosen,” but the Qere as well as all the versions and numerous medieval Hebrew manuscripts read “joined”
