Ecclesiastes 2:4-7

New International Version

⁴ I undertook great projects: I built houses for myself^(A) and planted vineyards.^{(B) 5} I made gardens and parks and planted all kinds of fruit trees in them. ⁶ I made reservoirs to water groves of flourishing trees. ⁷ I bought male and female slaves and had other slaves^(C) who were born in my house. I also owned more herds and flocks than anyone in Jerusalem before me.
