Ecclesiastes 2:13-15
1599 Geneva Bible
13 Then I saw that there is profit in wisdom more than in folly: as the light is more excellent than darkness.
14 (A)For the wise man’s [a]eyes are in his head, but the fool walketh in darkness: yet I know also that the same [b]condition falleth to them all.
15 Then I thought in mine heart, It befalleth unto me, as it befalleth to the fool. Why therefore do I then labor to be more wise? And I said in mine heart, that this also is vanity.
