Ecclesiastes 2:1-3

1I said to myself, “Come now, I will test you with pleasure; enjoy what is good!”

But it proved to be futile.

2I said of laughter, “It is folly,” and of pleasure, “What does it accomplish?”

3I sought to cheer my body with wine and to embrace folly—my mind still guiding me with wisdom—until I could see what was worthwhile for men to do under heaven during the few days of their lives.
