Ecclesiastes 2:4


Ecclesiastes 2:3 Ecclesiastes 2:4 (KJV) Ecclesiastes 2:5
I sought in mine heart to give myself unto wine, yet acquainting mine heart with wisdom; and to lay hold on folly, till I might see what [was] that good for the sons of men, which they should do under the heaven all the days of their life.
I made me great works; I builded me houses; I planted me vineyards:
I made me gardens and orchards, and I planted trees in them of all [kind of] fruits:
