They were crying, but no one was there to offer comfort, and those who mistreated them were powerful. 2I said to myself, \u201cThe dead are better off than the living. 3But those who have never been born are better off than anyone else, because they have never seen the terrible things that happen on this earth.\u201d 4Then I realized that we work and do wonderful things just because we are jealous of others. This makes no more sense than chasing the wind.4.4 chasing the wind: See the note at 1.14. 5Fools will fold their hands and starve to death. 6Yet a very little food eaten in peace is better than twice as much earned from overwork and chasing the wind.4.6 chasing the wind: See the note at 1.14. 7Once again I saw that nothing on earth makes sense. 8For example, some people don&#8217;t have friends or family. But they are never satisfied with what they own, and they never stop working to get more. They should ask themselves, \u201cWhy am I always working to have more? Who will get what I leave behind?\u201d What a senseless and miserable life! It Is Better To Have a Friend 9You are better having a friend than to be all alone, because then you will get more enjoyment out of what you earn. 10If you fall, your friend can help you up. But if you fall without having a friend nearby, you are really in trouble. 11If you sleep alone, you won&#8217;t have anyone to keep you warm on a cold night. 12Someone might be able to beat up one of you, but not both of you. As the saying goes, \u201cA rope made from three strands of cord is hard to break.\u201d 13You may be poor and young, but if you are wise, you are better off than a foolish old king who won&#8217;t listen to advice. 14Even if you were not born into the royal family and have been a prisoner and poor, you can still be king. 15I once saw everyone in the world follow a young leader who came to power after the king was gone. 16His followers could not even be counted. But years from now, no one will praise him\u2014this makes no more sense than chasing the wind. God blesses those people who are merciful. They will be treated with mercy! <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqbGg0LTBDUUFoMUFQWERjSS1wTEVMMTR0OEVaUXxBQ3Jtc0ttVEJRT3cxcmRUUEs1M3p3XzBHWWttd2VHQzU2SzFZOTN4VGtnR2t2VFRqdDd2TTJvbTZVR045ZU5FU3ltZFVwZ0lqUkg5dW9RQi1vT05xR3lIdXdUYjZBZ01wWm5GdnJkYXg1SXQzUXZhUVFQRzhjdw&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Ftemtube.com%2F&amp;v=d8h94jh7wL4\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/temtube.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It Is Better To Have a Friend 1I looked again and saw people being mistreated everywhere on earth.
