Ecclesiastes 2:14

The Living Must Abandon The Work Of Their Hands To Others At Death

¹³ And I saw that there is an advantage to wisdom above folly, like the advantage of the light above the darkness. ¹⁴ The wise! -- his eyes are in his head, and the fool in darkness is walking, and I also knew that one event happeneth with them all; ¹⁵ and I said in my heart, 'As it happeneth with the fool, it happeneth also with me, and why am I then more wise?' And I spake in my heart, that also this is vanity:

Foolish Man

In the Darkness

Walks in Darkness

Wise Man

Ecclesiastes 3:19

Ecclesiastes 9:11
