Ecclesiastes 5:17-19

Legacy Standard Bible

¹⁷ Also, all his days ^(A)he eats in darkness with ^(B)much vexation, and his sickness and anger.

¹⁸ Here is what I have seen to be ^(C)good, which is ^[a]beautiful: to eat, to drink, and to see good in all one’s labor in which he labors under the sun during the few days of his life which God has given him; for this is his ^(D)portion. ¹⁹ Furthermore, as for every man to whom ^(E)God has given riches and wealth, He has also ^(F)empowered him to eat from them and to take up his portion and be glad in his labor; this is the ^(G)gift of God.
