Ecclesiastes 6:5

A Conservative Version

Moreover it has not seen the sun nor known it, this [one] has rest rather than the other.

See the chapter Copy

as a snail which melts and passes away, [as] the untimely birth of a woman, that has not seen the sun.

Man, who is born of a woman, is of few days, and full of trouble.

For it comes in vanity, and departs in darkness, and the name of it is covered with darkness.

Yea, though he lives a thousand years twice told, and yet enjoys no good, do not all go to one place?

Truly the light is sweet, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to behold the sun.

Yea, better than them both [is] him who has not yet been, who has not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.
