Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
A man may father a hundred children and live for many years; yet no matter how long he lives, if he is unsatisfied with his prosperity and does not even receive a proper burial, I say that a stillborn child is better off than he.
World English Bible (WEB)
If a man fathers a hundred children, and lives many years, so that the days of his years are many, but his soul is not filled with good, and moreover he has no burial; I say, that a stillborn child is better than he:
Strong's King James
If a man{H376} beget{H3205}{(H8686)} an hundred{H3967} children, and live{H2421}{(H8799)} many{H7227} years{H8141}, so that the days{H3117} of his years{H8141} be many{H7227}, and his soul{H5315} be not filled{H7646}{(H8799)} with good{H2896}, and also that he have no burial{H6900}; I say{H559}{(H8804)}, that an untimely birth{H5309} is better{H2896} than he.

Young's Literal Translation
If a man doth beget a hundred, and live many years, and is great, because they are the days of his years, and his soul is not satisfied from the goodness, and also he hath not had a grave, I have said, ‘Better than he is the untimely birth.’
