26 aAnd I find more bitter than death
The woman whose heart is snares and nets,
Whose hands are fetters.
1He who pleases God shall escape from her,
But the sinner shall be trapped by her.
The woman whose heart is snares and nets,
Whose hands are fetters.

But the sinner shall be trapped by her.
27 Here is what I have found,” says athe Preacher,
“Adding one thing to the other to find out the reason,
“Adding one thing to the other to find out the reason,
28 Which my soul still seeks but I cannot find:
aOne man among a thousand I have found,
But a woman among all these I have not found.
aOne man among a thousand I have found,
But a woman among all these I have not found.
29 Truly, this only I have found:
aThat God made man upright,
But bthey have sought out many schemes.”
aThat God made man upright,
But bthey have sought out many schemes.”
