Ecclesiastes 1:17
So I set my mind to know wisdom and madness and folly; I learned that this, too, is a pursuit of the wind.
And I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit.
I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly. I perceived that this also was a chasing after wind.
And I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also was a striving after wind.
