Eclesiastés 2

Rotherham Emphasized Bible (1902)

12Thus turned, I, to look at wisdom, and madness and folly,—for what can the man do more who cometh after the king? save that which, already, men have done.

Reina-Valera 1909

12Después torné yo á mirar para ver la sabiduría y los desvaríos y la necedad; (porque ¿qué hombre hay que pueda seguir al rey en lo que ya hicieron?)

King James Version

12And I turned myself to behold wisdom, and madness, and folly: for what can the man do that cometh after the king? even that which hath been already done.

World English Bible

12I turned myself to consider wisdom, madness, and folly; for what can the king’s successor do? Just that which has been done long ago.
