Ecclesiastes 1:15-17
American Standard Version
15 That which is crooked cannot be made straight; and [a]that which is wanting cannot be numbered. 16 I communed with mine own heart, saying, Lo, I have gotten me great wisdom [b]above all that were before me [c]in Jerusalem; yea, my heart [d]hath had great experience of wisdom and knowledge. 17 And I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also was a striving after wind.
