Ecclesiastes 2:3-5

New International Version

³ I tried cheering myself with wine,^(A) and embracing folly^(B)—my mind still guiding me with wisdom. I wanted to see what was good for people to do under the heavens during the few days of their lives.

⁴ I undertook great projects: I built houses for myself^(C) and planted vineyards.^{(D) 5} I made gardens and parks and planted all kinds of fruit trees in them.
