Ecclesiastes 6:5

Context

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.
