Ecclesiastes 6:8

Amplified Bible (AMP)

For what advantage has the wise man over the fool [being worldly-wise is not the secret to happiness]? What advantage has the poor man who has learned how to walk before the living [publicly, with men''s eyes upon him; being poor is not the secret to happiness either]?
— Ecclesiastes 6:8 (AMP)
