<< Ecclesiastes 2:1 >>

Ecclesiastes 7:4 The mind of the wise is in the house of mourning, While the mind of fools is in the house of pleasure.

Ecclesiastes 8:15 So I commended pleasure, for there is nothing good for a man under the sun except to eat and to drink and to be merry, and this will stand by him in his toils throughout the days of his life which God has given him under the sun. (NASB ©1995)

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

I said in mine heart, Go to now, I will prove thee with mirth, therefore enjoy pleasure: and, behold, this also is vanity.

the vanity of human courses is the work of pleasure,1-11 Though the wise be better than the fool, yet both have one event,12-17. The vanity of human labour, in leaving it they know not to whom, 18-23. Nothing better than joy in our labour; but that is God's gift 24-26
