27 “Behold, I have found this,” says the Preacher, “to one another, to find out the scheme 28 which my soul still seeks, but I have not found.

Ecclesiastes 7:27-29
New International Version
27 “Look,” says the Teacher,[a](A) “this is what I have discovered:
“Adding one thing to another to discover the scheme of things—
28 while I was still searching
but not finding—
I found one upright man among a thousand,
but not one upright woman(B) among them all.
29 This only have I found:
God created mankind upright,
but they have gone in search of many schemes.”
