Wherefore should God be wroth at thy voice, and destroy the work of thy hands? <\/br><strong>7<\/strong> For in the multitude of dreams are vanities; so with many words: but fear God. <\/br><strong>8<\/strong> If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting of judgment and justice in a province, marvel not at the matter; for a higher than the high is watching, and there are higher than they. <\/br><strong>9<\/strong> Moreover the earth is every way profitable: the king [himself] is dependent upon the field. <\/br><strong>10<\/strong> He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver, nor he that loveth abundance with increase. This also is vanity. <\/br><strong>11<\/strong> When goods increase, they are increased that eat them; and what profit is there to the owner thereof, except the beholding [of them] with his eyes? <\/br><strong>12<\/strong> The sleep of the labourer is sweet, whether he have eaten little or much; but the fulness of the rich doth not suffer him to sleep. <\/br><strong>13<\/strong> There is a grievous evil that I have seen under the sun: riches kept for the owners thereof to their hurt; <\/br><strong>14<\/strong> or those riches perish by some evil circumstance, and if he have begotten a son, there is nothing in his hand. <\/br><strong>15<\/strong> As he came forth from his mother&#8217;s womb, naked shall he go away again as he came, and shall take nothing of his labour, which he may carry away in his hand. <\/br><strong>16<\/strong> And this also is a grievous evil, that in all points as he came so doth he go away, and what profit hath he, in having laboured for the wind? <\/br><strong>17<\/strong> All his days also he eateth in darkness, and hath much vexation, and sickness, and irritation. <\/br><strong>18<\/strong> Behold what I have seen good and comely: [it is] to eat and to drink, and to enjoy good in all his labour wherewith [man] laboureth under the sun, all the days of his life which God hath given him: for that is his portion. <\/br><strong>19<\/strong> Every man also to whom God hath given riches and wealth, and power to eat thereof, and to take his portion and to rejoice in his labour: that is a gift of God. <\/br><strong>20<\/strong> For he will not much remember the days of his life, because God answereth [him] with the joy of his heart. <\/br><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n    google_ad_client = \"ca-pub-4647651612525789\";\n
