Ecclesiastes 7:26-29 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

26. I found that some women are worse than death.They are as dangerous as traps.Their love is like a net.Their arms hold men like chains.A man who follows God will run away from them.But a sinner will be caught by them.

27. The Teacher says, “This is what I learned:I added all these things togetherto see if I could find some meaning for everything.

28. I am still looking for it,but I have not found it.But I did discover that truly good people are hard to find.Such people are one in a million!

29. One thing I have learned:God made people good.But people have found all kinds of ways to be bad.”
