6:5 though it never saw the light of day 1 nor knew anything, 2
yet it has more rest 3 than that man –
1 tn Heb “it never saw the sun.”
2 tn The word “anything” does not appear in the Hebrew text, but is supplied in the translation for clarity.
3 sn The Hebrew term translated rest here refers to freedom from toil, anxiety, and misery – part of the miserable misfortune that the miserly man of wealth must endure.
