Ecclesiastes 5:10 in Context — Ecclesiastes 5
8 Si violencias de pobres, y extorsión de derecho y de justicia vieres en la provincia, no te maravilles de esta licencia; porque alto está mirando sobre alto, y [uno] más alto [está] sobre ellos.
9 Además el provecho de la tierra es para todos: el rey [mismo] está sujeto á los campos.
10 El que ama el dinero, no se hartará de dinero; y el que ama el mucho [tener], no [sacará] fruto. También esto es vanidad.
11 Cuando los bienes se aumentan, también se aumentan sus comedores. ¿Qué bien, pues, tendrá su dueño, sino ver[los] con sus ojos?
12 Dulce es el sueño del trabajador, ora coma mucho ó poco; mas al rico no le deja dormir la hartura.
