Ecclesiastes 5:16

Back to Verses

And this also is a sore evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit hath he that hath laboured for the wind?

This is another big problem: when someone comes and goes, everything stays the same. What good does it do for someone who worked hard if they were only chasing the wind?
