ecclesiastes 6:4 For he cometh in with vanity, and departeth in darkness, and his name shall be covered with darkness.

ecclesiastes 6:4 for it comes in futility and goes into obscurity; and its name is covered in obscurity.

4. he--rather "it," "the untimely birth." So "its," not "his name."
with vanity--to no purpose; a type of the driftless existence of him who makes riches the chief good.
darkness--of the abortive; a type of the unhonored death and dark future beyond the grave of the avaricious.

ecclesiastes 6:4 for it comes in futility and goes into obscurity; and its name is covered in obscurity.
