6:1 Here is another misfortune that I have seen on earth,

and it weighs heavily on people:

2 God gives a man riches, property, and wealth

so that he lacks nothing that his heart desires,

yet God does not enable him to enjoy the fruit of his labor—

instead, someone else enjoys it!

This is fruitless and a grave misfortune.
