Yea, though he live a thousand years twice told, yet hath he seen no good: do not all go to one place?

KJV

Etiam si duobus millibus annis vixerit, et non fuerit perfruitus bonis, nonne ad unum locum properant omnia ?

Vulgate

καὶ εἰ ἔζησεν χιλίων ἐτῶν καθόδους, καὶ ἀγαθωσύνην οὐκ εἶδεν, μὴ οὐκ εἰς τόπον ἕνα πορεύεται;

LXX

yea, though he live a thousand years twice told, and yet enjoy no good, do not all go to one place?
