Ecclesiastes 7:22-26

for you know that even you have cursed others many times as well.

I tested all this with wisdom, and I said, “I will be wise,” but wisdom was far from me.

What has been is remote and very mysterious. Who can discover it?

I directed my mind to know and to investigate, and to seek wisdom and an explanation, and to know the evil of foolishness and the foolishness of insanity.

And I discovered as more bitter than death the woman whose heart is snares and nets, whose hands are chains. One who is pleasing to God will escape from her, but the sinner will be captured by her.
