Ecclesiastes 1:15-17
Contemporary English Version
15 If something is crooked,
it can't be made straight;
if something isn't there,
it can't be counted.
16 (A) I said to myself, “You are by far the wisest person who has ever lived in Jerusalem. You are eager to learn, and you have learned a lot.” 17 Then I decided to find out all I could about wisdom and foolishness. Soon I realized that this too was as senseless as chasing the wind.[a]
