Ecclesiastes 4:8

The Message Bible (MSG)

a solitary person, completely alone--no children, no family, no friends--yet working obsessively late into the night, compulsively greedy for more and more, never bothering to ask, "Why am I working like a dog, never having any fun? And who cares?" More smoke. A bad business.
— Ecclesiastes 4:8 (MSG)
