Ecclesiastes 1:12-15

12I, the Teacher, have been king over Israel in Jerusalem.

13I applied my mind to examine and explore through wisdom all that is done under heaven. God has given people this miserable task to keep them occupied.

14I have seen all the things that are done under the sun and have found everything to be futile, a pursuit of the wind.

15What is crooked cannot be straightened; what is lacking cannot be counted.
