Ecclesiastes 2:10-11

10 And nothing which was desired by my eyes did I keep from them; I did not keep any joy from my heart, because my heart took pleasure in all my work, and this was my reward.

11 Then I saw all the works which my hands had made, and everything I had been working to do; and I saw that all was to no purpose and desire for wind, and there was no profit under the sun.

Ecclesiastes 2:17

17 So I was hating life, because everything under the sun was evil to me: all is to no purpose and desire for wind.

Ecclesiastes 2:24-26

24 There is nothing better for a man than taking meat and drink, and having delight in his work. This again I saw was from the hand of God.

25 Who may take food or have pleasure without him?

26 To the man with whom he is pleased, God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy; but to the sinner he gives the work of getting goods together and storing up wealth, to give to him in whom God has pleasure. This again is to no purpose and desire for wind.
