Ecclesiastes 7:27-29

Lexham English Bible

²⁷ “Look! I found this,” said the Teacher,^[a] “while trying to find how the plan fits together. ²⁸ What my heart sought, I did not find. Although I found one righteous man among one thousand, I did not find one upright woman among all these. ²⁹ Look! This alone I found: God made mankind upright, but they have devised many schemes.”
