Ecclesiastes:2:12-16




noyes@Ecclesiastes:2:12 @ Then I turned myself to behold wisdom and senselessness and folly. For what can the man do that cometh after the king? even that which hath been already done.

noyes@Ecclesiastes:2:13 @ I saw, indeed, that wisdom excelleth folly, as far as light excelleth darkness.

noyes@Ecclesiastes:2:14 @ The wise man’s eyes are in his head, but the fool walketh in darkness; yet I perceived also that one event happeneth to them all.

noyes@Ecclesiastes:2:15 @ Then I said in my heart, "As it happeneth to the fool, so it happeneth to me. Why, then, became I wiser than others?" Then I said in my heart, "This also is vanity."

noyes@Ecclesiastes:2:16 @ For there is no remembrance of the wise man more than of the fool for ever; for in the days to come shall all have long been forgotten; and, alas! the wise man dieth, as well as the fool.
