Ecclesiastes 2:4-9
I enlarged my works: I built houses for myself, I planted vineyards for myself;I made gardens and parks for myself, and I planted in them all kinds of fruit trees;I made ponds of water for myself from which to irrigate a forest of growing trees.I bought male and female slaves, and I had slaves born at home. I also possessed flocks and herds larger than all who preceded me in Jerusalem.I also amassed for myself silver and gold, and the treasure of kings and provinces. I provided for myself male and female singers, and the pleasures of the sons of mankind: many concubines.Then I became great and increased more than all who preceded me in Jerusalem. My wisdom also stood by me.
