- "If¹ a manª begetª° an hundredª [children], and liveª° manyª years,ª so that the daysª of his yearsª be¹¹ many,ª and his soulª be not¹ filledª° with¹ good,ª and also¹ [that] he have¹ no¹ burial;ª I say,ª° [that] an untimely birthª [is] betterª than¹ he. ... Moreover¹ he hath not¹ seenª° the sun,ª nor¹ knownª° [any thing]: thisª hath more restª than² the other.¹¹" {Ecc 6:3-5} + "Whatsoever¹¹ thy handª findethª° to do,ª° doª° [it] with thy might;ª for¹ [there is] no¹ work,ª nor device,ª nor knowledge,ª nor wisdom,ª in the grave,ª whither¹¹ thou¹ goest.ª°" {Ecc 9:10}
