Ecclesiastes 7:24
Ecclesiastes 7:24 New Century Version (NCV)
I cannot understand why things are as they are. It is too hard for anyone to understand.
Ecclesiastes 7:23-25 The Message (MSG)
I tested everything in my search for wisdom. I set out to be wise, but it was beyond me, far beyond me, and deep—oh so deep! Does anyone ever find it? I concentrated with all my might, studying and exploring and seeking wisdom—the meaning of life. I also wanted to identify evil and stupidity, foolishness and craziness.
