From Ecclesiastes Chapter 4

Again, I looked and saw all the oppression

That was taking place under the sun

I saw the tears of the oppressed

And they had no comforter

Power was on the side of their oppressors

And I declare that the dead who had already died

Are happier than the living who are still alive

The better than both is the one who has never been born

Who has not seen the evil that is done under the sun
