Ecclesiastes 2:25 in Context — Ecclesiastes 2

23 Porque todos sus días [no] son [sino] dolores, y sus trabajos molestias: aun de noche su corazón no reposa. Esto también es vanidad.

24 No hay cosa mejor para el hombre [sino] que coma y beba, y que su alma vea el bien de su trabajo. También tengo yo visto que esto es de la mano de Dios.

25 Porque ¿quién comerá, y quién se cuidará, mejor que yo?

26 Porque al hombre que le agrada, [Dios] le da sabiduría y ciencia y gozo: mas al pecador da trabajo, el que allegue y amontone, para que dé al que agrada á Dios. También esto es vanidad y aflicción de espíritu.
