Ecclesiastes 4:15 in context

  1. 13Better is a poor and wise youth than an old and foolish king who doesn’t know how to receive admonition any more.
  2. 14For out of prison he came out to be king; yes, even in his kingdom he was born poor.
  3. 15I saw all the living who walk under the sun, that they were with the youth, the other, who succeeded him.
  4. 16There was no end of all the people, even of all them over whom he was—yet those who come after shall not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and a chasing after wind.
