Ecclesiastes 7:27-29 Good News Bible (GNB)

27. Yes, said the Philosopher, I found this out little by little while I was looking for answers.

28. I have looked for other answers but have found none. I found one man in a thousand that I could respect, but not one woman.

29. This is all that I have learnt: God made us plain and simple, but we have made ourselves very complicated.
