Ecclesiastes 2:23

כִּ֤י כָל יָמָיו֙ מַכְאֹבִ֣ים וָכַ֔עַס עִנְיָנ֖וֹ גַּם בַּלַּ֣יְלָה לֹא שָׁכַ֣ב לִבּ֑וֹ גַּם זֶ֖ה הֶ֥בֶל הֽוּא׃
kiy kal yamayv makʾobiym vakaʿas ʿinyanvo gam balaylah loʾ shakab libvo gam zeh hebel hvʾ
King James Version (KJV)

For all his days are sorrows, and his travail grief; yea, his heart taketh not rest in the night. This is also vanity.

Modern English

For all his days are full of sorrow, and his work is a vexation. Even in the night his heart does not rest. This also is vanity.
