Ecclesiastes 1:12-13

NAS

NIV

12 I, the Preacher, have been king over Israel in Jerusalem.
12 I, the Teacher, was king over Israel in Jerusalem.
13 And I set my mind to seek and explore by wisdom concerning all that has been done under heaven. It is a grievous task which God has given to the sons of men to be afflicted with.
13 I applied my mind to study and to explore by wisdom all that is done under the heavens. What a heavy burden God has laid on mankind!
