Ecclesiastes 2:9-11
New King James Version
9 (A)So I became great and [a]excelled (B)more than all who were before me in Jerusalem. Also my wisdom remained with me.
10 Whatever 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 labor;
And (C)this was my [b]reward from all my labor.
11 Then I looked on all the works that my hands had done
And on the labor in which I had toiled;
And indeed all was (D)vanity and grasping for the wind.
There was no profit under the sun.
