What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboreth?
What profit hath a man of all his labor which he taketh under the sun?
And this also is a sore evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit hath he that hath labored for the wind?
In all labor there is profit: but the talk of the lips tendeth only to penury.
For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
Then I looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labor that I had labored to do: and, behold, all was vanity and vexation of spirit, and there was no profit under the sun.
that ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with us, and laboreth.
