Short Link to this Quote:
This verse from Ecclesiastes suggests that God blesses righteous people with qualities like wisdom and happiness, while sinners are only given wealth as a temporary task of accumulating it to eventually hand over to the righteous.
It indicates worldly riches alone do not guarantee divine favor – one can be wealthy yet lack true blessings of knowledge and joy.
The overall message seems to be that material prosperity should not be the chief goal in life, and that the righteous who please God through faith and obedience will receive greater rewards than what wealth can provide, both in this life and the next.
