Ecclesiastes 6:9⥂
KJV:
Better [is] the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire: this [is] also vanity and vexation of spirit.
BSB:
Better what the eye can see than the wandering of desire. This too is futile and a pursuit of the wind.
Hebrew:
ט֛וֹב מַרְאֵ֥ה עֵינַ֖יִם מֵֽהֲלָךְ־ נָ֑פֶשׁ גַּם־ זֶ֥ה הֶ֖בֶל וּרְע֥וּת רֽוּחַ׃
