Ecclesiastes 5:11⥂
KJV:
When goods increase, they are increased that eat them: and what good [is there] to the owners thereof, saving the beholding [of them] with their eyes?
BSB:
When good things increase, so do those who consume them; what then is the profit to the owner, except to behold them with his eyes?
Hebrew:
בִּרְבוֹת֙ הַטּוֹבָ֔ה רַבּ֖וּ אוֹכְלֶ֑יהָ וּמַה־ כִּשְׁרוֹן֙ לִבְעָלֶ֔יהָ כִּ֖י אִם־ רְא֥וּת עֵינָֽיו׃
