Ecclesiastes 2:9-11

Revised Geneva Translation

⁹ And I was great and increased above all who were before me in Jerusalem. My wisdom remained with me also.

¹⁰ And whatever my eyes desired I did not withhold from them. I did not withdraw my heart from any pleasure; for my heart rejoiced in all my labor. And this was my reward for all my labor.

¹¹ Then I looked on all my works that my hands had wrought, and on the work that I had labored to do. And behold, all is vanity and grasping at the wind. And there is no profit under the Sun.
