*
The words of the Preacher ,
the son of David ,
king in Jerusalem :
*
Vanity of vanities ,
says the Preacher ,
vanity of vanities !
All is vanity !
*
What is the profit to a man in all his labor which he labors under the sun ?
*
A generation passes away ,
and another generation comes ;
but the earth stands forever .
*
The sun also arises ,
and the sun goes hurrying to its place ;
it arises there again .
*
The wind goes toward the south ,
and turning around to the north ;
the wind is going around and around .
And the wind returns on its circuits .
*
All the rivers are going to the sea ;
yet the sea is not full .
To the place where the rivers are going ,
there they are returning to go again .
*
All words are wearisome ;
a man is not able to utter it .
The eye is not satisfied to see ,
nor is the ear filled from hearing .
*
That which has been ,
it is that which shall be .
And that which has been done ,
it is that which will be done .
And there is no new thing under the sun .
*
Is there a thing of which one might say ,
See this ,
it is new ?
It has already been for the ages which were before us .
*
There is no memory of former things ;
yea ,
nor is there any memory for them of things which will be afterward ,
with those who will be at the last .
