And happier than both of these, I judged him to be, who has not yet been born, and who has not yet seen the evils which are done under the sun.
and who rejoice greatly when they have found the grave,
I have seen all that is done under the sun, and behold: all is emptiness and an affliction of the spirit.
And, because of this, my life wearied me, since I saw that everything under the sun is evil, and everything is empty and an affliction of the spirit.
So then, woe to those who are pregnant or nursing in those days.
For behold, the days will arrive in which they will say, 'Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that have not borne, and the breasts that have not nursed.'
