Ecclesiastes 6:5 in Context — Ecclesiastes 6

3 Si el hombre engendrare ciento, y viviere muchos años, y los días de su edad fueren numerosos; si su alma no se hartó del bien, y también careció de sepultura, yo digo que el abortivo es mejor que él.

4 Porque en vano vino, y á tinieblas va, y con tinieblas será cubierto su nombre.

5 Aunque no haya visto el sol, ni conocido [nada], más reposo tiene éste que aquél.

6 Porque si viviere [aquél] mil años dos veces, si no ha gozado del bien, cierto todos van á un lugar.

7 Todo el trabajo del hombre es para su boca, y con todo eso su alma no se harta.
