What profit do people get from all their labors?
One generation dies and another is born, but the earth goes on forever.
The sun rises, the sun goes down, then it circles around and rises again.
The wind goes south, then north, whirling around and around, yet always coming back to wherever it was before.
The rivers flow to the sea, but the sea never fills up, because the rivers return to their source, and flow again.
Things that have been will be again; things that have already been done will be done again.
There is nothing new under the sun.
(Ecclesiastes 1:3-7, 9)
