¹² For who knows what is good for a person during his lifetime, during the few ^[a]years of his futile life? He will ^[b]spend them like a shadow. For who can tell a person ^(A)what will happen after him under the sun?

^9 [a]Enjoy life with the wife whom you love all the days of your ^(A)futile life which He has given you under the sun, ^[b]all the days of your futility; for this is your ^(B)reward in life and in your work which you have labored under the sun.
