Ecclesiastes 5:12

Revised Version with Apocrypha 1895

The sleep of a labouring man is sweet, whether he eat little or much: but the fulness of the rich will not suffer him to sleep.

See the chapter Copy

It is vain for you that ye rise up early, and so late take rest, And eat the bread of toil: For so he giveth unto his beloved sleep.

In peace will I both lay me down and sleep: For thou, LORD, alone makest me dwell in safety.

When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: Yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet.

Upon this I awaked, and beheld; and my sleep was sweet unto me.
