Ecc 12:5-7
5Also when they shall be afraid of that which is high, and fears shall be in the way, and the almond tree shall flourish, and the grasshopper shall be a burden, and desire shall fail: because man goeth to his long home, and the mourners go about the streets: 6Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern. 7Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.
Solomon makes no difference between the righteous and the wicked. God grants us life and takes it back. All of us.
Neither does the verse say anything about our spirits rejoicing in Heavens eternal life. No. Just that it returns to God.

Was Solomon wiser or greater than Jesus?
