²⁷ “Here is what I have found,” says ^(A)the Preacher,
“Adding one thing to the other to find out the reason,
²⁸ Which my soul still seeks but I cannot find:
^(B)One man among a thousand I have found,
But a woman among all these I have not found.
²⁹ Truly, this only I have found:
^(C)That God made man upright,
But ^(D)they have sought out many schemes.”
