Ecclesiastes 5:11

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

When good things increase, so do those who consume them; what then is the profit to the owner, except to behold them with his eyes?

World English Bible (WEB)

When goods increase, those who eat them are increased; and what advantage is there to its owner, except to feast on them with his eyes?

Strong's King James

When goods{H2896} increase{H7235}{(H8800)}, they are increased{H7231}{(H8804)} that eat{H398}{(H8802)} them: and what good{H3788} is there to the owners{H1167} thereof, saving{H518} the beholding{H7207}{(H8675)}{H7212}{(H8801)} of them with their eyes{H5869}?
