What benefit does the worker have in his toil?
In all toil there is profit, but idle chatter of the lips leads only to poverty.
What benefit is there to a person in all his labors at which he toils under the sun?
Then I turned to all the work that my hands had done, and all the labor in which I had toiled doing it; and again, all of it was vanity and chasing the wind, and there was no benefit under the sun.
And this also is a grave misery: As he entered, so will he leave; what benefit is there to the one who toils for the wind?
For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
that you submit yourselves to such people, and to everyone who helps and labors with us.
