Ecclesiastes 2:19-21
New American Standard Bible 1995
19 And who knows whether he will be a wise man or (A)a fool? Yet he will have [a]control over all the fruit of my labor for which I have labored by acting wisely under the sun. This too is (B)vanity. 20 Therefore I [b]completely despaired of all the fruit of my labor for which I had labored under the sun. 21 When there is a man who has labored with wisdom, knowledge and (C)skill, then he (D)gives his [c]legacy to one who has not labored with them. This too is vanity and a great evil.
