Ecclesiastes 6:3-5
Christian Standard Bible
3 A man may father a hundred children and live many years. No matter how long he lives,[a] if he is not satisfied by good things and does not even have a proper burial,(A) I say that a stillborn child is better off than he.(B) 4 For he comes in futility and he goes in darkness, and his name is shrouded in darkness. 5 Though a stillborn child does not see the sun and is not conscious, it has more rest than he.
