The Morning Psalm

Ecclesiastes 6:7

King James Version

All the labour of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.
Ecclesiastes 6:7, KJV

Ecclesiastes 6:7 in context

5Moreover he hath not seen the sun, nor known any thing: this hath more rest than the other.

6Yea, though he live a thousand years twice told, yet hath he seen no good: do not all go to one place?

7All the labour of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.

8For what hath the wise more than the fool? what hath the poor, that knoweth to walk before the living?

9Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire: this is also vanity and vexation of spirit.
