⁷ for we brought nothing into the world, for neither can we carry anything out;

²¹ and he said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: Jehovah gave, and Jehovah hath taken away; blessed be the name of Jehovah.

¹⁷ For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away; His glory shall not descend after him.

¹⁵ As he came forth from his mother's womb, naked shall he go again as he came, and shall take nothing for his labor, which he may carry away in his hand.

¹⁶ And this also is a grievous evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit hath he that he laboreth for the wind?

²⁴ For riches are not for ever: And doth the crown endure unto all generations?

²⁰ But God said unto him, Thou foolish one, this night is thy soul required of thee; and the things which thou hast prepared, whose shall they be?

²¹ So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
