Ecclesiastes 7:27-29

New International Version

“Adding one thing to another to discover the scheme of things—
²⁸     while I was still searching
    but not finding—
I found one upright man among a thousand,
    but not one upright woman^(B) among them all.
²⁹ This only have I found:
    God created mankind upright,
    but they have gone in search of many schemes.”
