Ecclesiastes 2:2-4

21st Century King James Version

² I said of laughter: “It is madness”; and of mirth: “What good doeth it?”

³ I sought in mine heart to give myself unto wine (yet acquainting mine heart with wisdom), and to lay hold on folly, until I might see what was good for the sons of men, which they should do under heaven all the days of their life.

⁴ I made me great work, I builded me houses, I planted me vineyards.
