I said in my heart, “Come now, I will test you with mirth; therefore enjoy pleasure”; but surely, this also was vanity. Eccesiasties 2:1

Whatever my eyes desired I did not keep from them. I did not withhold my heart from any pleasure … And indeed all was vanity and grasping for the wind. There was no profit under the sun. Eccesiasties 2:10-11

The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. John 10:10

The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows). John 10:10 – Amplified
