Ecclesiastes 6:5

Wycliffe's Bible with Modern Spelling

He saw not the sun, neither knew the diversity of good and of evil;

See the chapter Copy

A man is born of a woman, and liveth short time, and he is full-filled with many wretchednesses.

As wax that floateth [or floweth] away, they shall be taken away; fire fell above, and they saw not the sun.

The light is sweet, and delightable to the eyes to see the sun.

and I deemed him, that was not born yet, and saw not the evils that be done under the sun, to be more blessed than ever either.

For he cometh in vain, and goeth to darknesses; and his name shall be done away by forgetting.

also though he live two thousand years, and useth not [the] goods; whether all things hasten not to one place?
