Ecclesiastes 5:10 in Context — Ecclesiastes 5
8 Un avantage pour le pays à tous égards, c’est un roi honoré du pays.
9 Celui qui aime l’argent n’est pas rassasié par l’argent, et celui qui aime les richesses n’en profite pas. C’est encore là une vanité.
10 Quand le bien abonde, ceux qui le mangent abondent; et quel avantage en revient-il à son possesseur, sinon qu’il le voit de ses yeux?
11 Le sommeil du travailleur est doux, qu’il ait peu ou beaucoup à manger; mais le rassasiement du riche ne le laisse pas dormir.
12 Il est un mal grave que j’ai vu sous le soleil: des richesses conservées, pour son malheur, par celui qui les possède.
