17 So I ended up feeling disgusted with life because everything that happens here on earth is so distressing. It's so incomprehensible, like trying to control the wind.
Notes and references
“Feeling disgusted”: literally “hated.”
“Distressing”: the word used here also means evil, trouble, injury, misery etc.
“Incomprehensible”: again the Teacher is not saying life is without meaning, but that it is hard to discover the meaning.
