Ecclesiastes:2:12-16




bbe@Ecclesiastes:2:12 @And I went again in search of wisdom and of foolish ways. What may the man do who comes after the king? The thing which he has done before.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:2:13 @Then I saw that wisdom is better than foolish ways--as the light is better than the dark.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:2:14 @The wise man's eyes are in his head, but the foolish man goes walking in the dark; but still I saw that the same event comes to them all.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:2:15 @Then said I in my heart: As it comes to the foolish man, so will it come to me; so why have I been wise overmuch? Then I said in my heart: This again is to no purpose.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:2:16 @Of the wise man, as of the foolish man, there is no memory for ever, seeing that those who now are will have gone from memory in the days to come. See how death comes to the wise as to the foolish!
