Ecclesiastes 7:27 Context
25I applyed mine heart to know, and to search, and to seeke out wisdome, and the reason of things, aud to know the wickednes of folly, euen of foolishnesse and madnesse. 26And I finde more bitter then death, the woman whose heart is snares & nets, and her handes as bands: who so pleaseth God, shall escape from her, but the sinner shall be taken by her. 27Behold, this haue I found (saith the Preacher) counting one by one to finde out the account: 28Which yet my soule seeketh, but I finde not: one man among a thousand haue I found, but a woman among all those haue I not found. 29Loe, this onely haue I found, that God hath made man vpright: but they haue sought out many inuentions.
