Ecclesiastes 7:27 in Context — Ecclesiastes 7
25 Decidi em meu coração conhecer, investigar e buscar a sabedoria e a razão; e saber o mal que há na tolice e na loucura das maluquices.
26 E eu encontrei uma coisa mais amarga que a morte: a mulher cujo coração são redes e armadilhas, e suas mãos são amarras; quem for bom perante Deus escapará dela; mas o pecador ficará preso nela.
27 Olha isto:(diz o pregador, enquanto ele procurava entender [as coisas] ,uma por uma)
28 Aquilo que minha alma tem buscado, ainda não achei; um homem entre mil eu achei; mas uma mulher entre todas estas não achei.
29 Eis que somente achei isto: que Deus fez os homens corretos, porém foram eles que buscaram muitos desejos ruins.
