Ecclesiastes 5:16

NIRV

NIV

16 Here's something else that is very evil. A man is born, and a man dies. And what does he get for his work? Nothing. It's 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?
