Ecclesiastes 2:7-9
Common English Bible
7 I acquired male servants and female servants; I even had slaves born in my house. I also had great herds of cattle and sheep, more than any who preceded me in Jerusalem. 8 I amassed silver and gold for myself, the treasures of kings and provinces. I acquired male and female singers for myself, along with every human luxury, treasure chests galore![a] 9 So I became far greater than all who preceded me in Jerusalem. Moreover, my wisdom stood by me.
