RF ECC 4:1 Lecture 4: On Misgovernment.
I have applied myself and examined into all the wrongs that are done under the sun; and I have seen the tears of the oppressed, and they had no consolation;—for Power was in the hands of their Oppressors!—so they had no consolation.
RF ECC 4:2 Therefore I congratulated the Dead, who died in the past, more than the living who are still alive.—
RF ECC 4:3 But, better than either is he who has not come to sensation;—who has not seen in Creation the suffering that is produced under the sun!
RF ECC 4:4 I also turned and examined all toil, and all the success produced by it;—that a man is envied for it by his neighbour. So it is also vanity and vexation of spirit!
RF ECC 4:5 Yet the idler folds his hands and eats his own flesh!—
RF ECC 4:6 Yet a handful with quietness is better than both hands full with anxiety and vexation of spirit!
RF ECC 4:7 Then I turned to examine this vanity under the sun.—
RF ECC 4:8 There may be a solitary without a companion; who possesses neither a son nor brother, yet there is no end to all his anxiety; nor are his eyes satiated with wealth;—nor does he ask, "For whom do I toil and deprive my life of enjoyment?" This also is vanity and a grievous trouble!
RF ECC 4:9 Two are better than one,—for there is a better reward to them for work.
RF ECC 4:10 And if the one falls his companion can lift him up; but alas! for one who falls when there is not another to help him to rise!
RF ECC 4:11 Then if two lie together they will be warm; but there is only one, where is the warmth?
RF ECC 4:12 And one may be defeated, where two associated could stand, and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
RF ECC 4:13 A poor and instructed youth is preferable to an ignorant and old king, who will never learn intelligence;—
RF ECC 4:14 who brings men from the house of a slave-dealer to govern;—whilst those born in his kingdom he brings to poverty!
RF ECC 4:15 I compared the whole of the living that walk under the sun with the next generation coming after them.—
RF ECC 4:16 There is no end to all the people,—to all who have been formerly,—yet their successors will not be cheered by it.—So this, is vanity and vexation of spirit!
