KJV:
Yea, better [is he] than both they, which hath not yet been, who hath not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.

But better than both is he who has not yet existed, who has not seen the evil that is done under the sun.
Hebrew:
וְטוֹב֙ מִשְּׁנֵיהֶ֔ם אֵ֥ת אֲשֶׁר־ עֲדֶ֖ן לֹ֣א הָיָ֑ה אֲשֶׁ֤ר לֹֽא־ רָאָה֙ אֶת־ הַמַּעֲשֶׂ֣ה הָרָ֔ע אֲשֶׁ֥ר נַעֲשָׂ֖ה תַּ֥חַת הַשָּֽׁמֶשׁ׃
