Ecclesiastes 2:10-13 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

10. And all that my eyes desired I did not keep from them. I did not withhold my heart from any pleasure, for my heart rejoiced in all my labour. And this was my portion from all my labour.

11. But when I looked on all the works that my hands had done and on the labour in which I had toiled, see, all was futile and feeding on wind, and there was no gain under the sun.

12. And I turned myself to look at wisdom, and madness, and folly. For what would the man do who comes after the sovereign except what already has been done?

13. Then I saw that wisdom is better than folly, as light is better than darkness.
