Ecclesiastes 1:9


← Ecclesiastes 1:8 Ecclesiastes 1:9 (KJV) Ecclesiastes 1:10 →
All things are full of labour; man cannot utter it: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing.
The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.
Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.
