Ecclesiastes 5:16

NLT

NIV

16 And this, too, is a very serious problem. People leave this world no better off than when they came. All their hard work is for nothing—like working for the wind.
16 This too is a grievous evil: As everyone comes, so they depart, and what do they gain, since they toil for the wind?
