Ecclesiastes 7:29
God hath made - Rather, God made. A definite allusion to the original state of man: in which he was exempt from vanity.
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.”
