Truyền Đạo 5 10-Truyền Đạo 5 12
Whoever loves money never has enough; whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income. This too is meaningless.As goods increase, so do those who consume them. And what benefit are they to the owners except to feast their eyes on them?The sleep of a laborer is sweet, whether they eat little or much, but as for the rich, their abundance permits them no sleep. (niv)

Châm Ngôn 28 6
Better the poor whose walk is blameless than the rich whose ways are perverse. (niv)

Truyền Đạo 2 18-Truyền Đạo 2 23
I hated all the things I had toiled for under the sun, because I must leave them to the one who comes after me.And who knows whether that person will be wise or foolish? Yet they will have control over all the fruit of my toil into which I have poured my effort and skill under the sun. This too is meaningless.So my heart began to despair over all my toilsome labor under the sun.For a person may labor with wisdom, knowledge and skill, and then they must leave all they own to another who has not toiled for it. This too is meaningless and a great misfortune.What do people get for all the toil and anxious striving with which they labor under the sun?All their days their work is grief and pain; even at night their minds do not rest. This too is meaningless. (niv)

Truyền Đạo 2 10-Truyền Đạo 2 11
I denied myself nothing my eyes desired; I refused my heart no pleasure. My heart took delight in all my labor, and this was the reward for all my toil.Yet when I surveyed all that my hands had done and what I had toiled to achieve, everything was meaningless, a chasing after the wind; nothing was gained under the sun. (niv)

Châm Ngôn 10 22
