Surely every man goes about like a phantom; surely he bustles in vain; he heaps up riches not knowing who will haul them away.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
“Surely every man walks like a shadow. Surely they busy themselves in vain. He heaps up, and doesn’t know who shall gather.

Surely every man{H376} walketh{H1980}{(H8691)} in a vain shew{H6754}: surely they are disquieted{H1993}{H8799)} in vain{H1892}: he heapeth up{H6651}{H8799)} riches, and knoweth{H3045}{H8799)} not who shall gather{H622}{H8802)} them.
Strong's King James
(6) Yes, man walks like an image,
Yes a roaring vapour,
Heaping up and not knowing who will gather it.

Only, in an image doth each walk habitually, Only, in vain, they are disquieted, He heapeth up and knoweth not who gathereth them.
Young's Literal Translation
