Eclesiastés 2

Pero mirando cuanto había emprendido, me pareció tan inútil, como perseguir el viento sin que nada valiera realmente la pena.

Miré yo luego todas las obras que habían hecho mis manos, y el trabajo que tomé para hacerlas: y he aquí, todo vanidad y aflicción de espíritu, y no hay provecho debajo del sol.

Then I looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labour that I had laboured to do: and, behold, all was vanity and vexation of spirit, and there was no profit under the sun.
