Ecclesiastes 6:7 in Context — Ecclesiastes 6
5 [Alguém] que nunca tivesse visto o sol, nem [o] conhecido, teria mais descanso do que ele.
6 E ainda que vivesse mil anos duas vezes, e não experimentasse o que é bom, por acaso não vão todos para o mesmo lugar?
7 Todo o trabalho do homem é para sua boca; porém sua alma nunca se satisfaz.
8 Pois que vantagem tem o sábio sobre o tolo? E que [mais] tem o pobre que sabe como se comportar diante dos vivos?
9 Melhor é a vista dos olhos do que o vaguear da cobiça; também isto é fútil [como] perseguir o vento.
