Ecclesiastes 4:4
I have seen that every labor and every skill which is done is the result of rivalry between a person and his neighbor. This too is futility and striving after wind.
Ecclesiastes 4:5
The fool folds his hands and consumes his own flesh.
Ecclesiastes 4:6
One hand full of rest is better than two fists full of labor and striving after wind.
Ecclesiastes 4:7
Then I looked again at futility under the sun.
