Ecclesiastes 4:5-8 New King James Version (NKJV)

5. The fool folds his handsAnd consumes his own flesh.

6. Better a handful with quietnessThan both hands full, together with toil and grasping for the wind.

7. Then I returned, and I saw vanity under the sun:

8. There is one alone, without companion:He has neither son nor brother.Yet there is no end to all his labors,Nor is his eye satisfied with riches.But he never asks,“For whom do I toil and deprive myself of good?”This also is vanity and a grave misfortune.
