Parallel
Ecclesiastes 6:3
Berean Standard Bible · Westminster Leningrad Codex
A man may father a hundred children and live for many years; yet no matter how long he lives, if he is unsatisfied with his prosperity and does not even receive a proper burial, I say that a stillborn child is better off than he.
אִם־ יוֹלִ֣יד אִ֣ישׁ מֵאָ֡ה וְשָׁנִים֩ רַבּ֨וֹת יִֽחְיֶ֜ה וְרַ֣ב׀ שֶׁיִּהְי֣וּ יְמֵֽי־ שָׁנָ֗יו וְנַפְשׁוֹ֙ לֹא־ תִשְׂבַּ֣ע מִן־ הַטּוֹבָ֔ה וְגַם־ קְבוּרָ֖ה לֹא־ הָ֣יְתָה לּ֑וֹ אָמַ֕רְתִּי ט֥וֹב מִמֶּ֖נּוּ הַנָּֽפֶל׃
