Ecclesiastes 2:24-25

KJV

NIV

24 There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labour. This also I saw, that it was from the hand of God.
24 A person can do nothing better than to eat and drink and find satisfaction in their own toil. This too, I see, is from the hand of God,
25 For who can eat, or who else can hasten hereunto, more than I?
25 for without him, who can eat or find enjoyment?
