Ecclesiastes 2:6-8

Modern English Version

⁶ I made for myself pools of water to irrigate the forests of growing trees. ⁷ I even bought male and female slaves; even some were born to me in my house. I had also great possessions of herds and flocks more than any who had been in Jerusalem before me. ⁸ I also gathered for myself silver and gold and treasures of kings and provinces. I obtained singers, both men and women, and the delights of the sons of men, and many concubines.
