Ecclesiastes 2:1-4 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

1. I said to myself, “Have fun and enjoy yourself!” But this didn't make sense.

2. Laughing and having fun is mad. What good does it do?

3. I wanted to find out what was best for us during the short time we have on this earth. So I decided to make myself happy with wine and find out what it means to be foolish, without really being foolish myself.

4. I did some great things. I built houses and planted vineyards.
