Berean Standard Bible
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.”
In context
15What is crooked cannot be straightened, and what is lacking cannot be counted.
17So I set my mind to know wisdom and madness and folly; I learned that this, too, is a pursuit of the wind.
18For with much wisdom comes much sorrow, and as knowledge grows, grief increases.
