Behold, this I have found, says the Preacher, counting one by one to find out the sum,
I, the Preacher, was king over Israel in Jerusalem.
and I found more bitter than death the woman whose heart is snares and nets; her hands are bonds. A good man before God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be captured by her.
that my soul still seeks, but I have not found; one man among a thousand I have found, but a woman among all these I have not found.
