Ecclesiastes 6:5

New English Translation

though it never saw the light of day nor knew anything, yet it has more rest than that man –

See the chapter Copy

“Man, born of woman, lives but a few days, and they are full of trouble.

Let them be like a snail that melts away as it moves along! Let them be like stillborn babies that never see the sun!

Light is sweet, and it is pleasant for a person to see the sun.

But better than both is the one who has not been born and has not seen the evil things that are done on earth.

Though the stillborn child came into the world for no reason and departed into darkness, though its name is shrouded in darkness,

if he should live a thousand years twice, yet does not enjoy his prosperity. For both of them die!
