Ecclesiastes
Chapters 7:25-29
Revised Version 1885
25I turned about, and my heart was set to know and to search out, and to seek wisdom and the reason of things, and to know that wickedness is folly, and that foolishness is madness:
26And I find a thing more bitter than death, even the woman whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her.
27Behold, this have I found, saith the Preacher; laying one thing to another, to find out the account:
28which my soul still seeketh, but I have not found: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found.
29Behold, this only have I found, that God made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions.
