Ecclesiastes 2:9-11

NSB(i) 9 I became great and increased more than all who had been before me in Jerusalem and my wisdom remained with me. 10 Whatever my eyes desired I did not keep from them. I did not withhold joy from my heart. My heart took pleasure in all my work and this was my reward. 11 I looked at all the works my hands accomplished. I saw everything I had worked to do. I saw that all was vanity and grasping for the wind. It was to no purpose for there was no profit under the sun.
