Ecclesiastes 1:2-3

2 "Vanity of vanities," says Kohelet; "Vanity of vanities, all is vanity."

3 What does man gain from all his labor in which he labors under the sun?

Ecclesiastes 1:14

14 I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and a chasing after wind.

Ecclesiastes 1:17

17 I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly. I perceived that this also was a chasing after wind.
