13. and I applied my mind to search and investigate in wisdom all things that are done under the sun.A bad business God has givento human beings to be busied with.
14. I have seen all things that are done under the sun, and behold, all is vanity and a chase after wind.
15. What is crooked cannot be made straight,and you cannot count what is not there.
16. Though I said to myself, “See, I have greatly increased my wisdom beyond all who were before me in Jerusalem, and my mind has broad experience of wisdom and knowledge,”
17. yet when I applied my mind to know wisdom and knowledge, madness and folly, I learned that this also is a chase after wind.
18. For in much wisdom there is much sorrow;whoever increases knowledge increases grief.
