Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities;
all is vanity. What profit hath a man of all his labour
which he taketh under the sun? One generation passeth away,
and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for
ever. The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and
hasteth to his place where he arose. The wind goeth toward
the south, and turneth about unto the north; it whirleth
about continually, and the wind returneth again according to
his circuits. All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea
is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come,
thither they return again.

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.

There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall
there be any remembrance of things that are to come with
those that shall come after.

I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem. And I gave
my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all
things that are done under heaven: this sore travail hath
God given to the sons of man to be exercised therewith. I
have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and,
behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit. That which is
crooked cannot be made straight: and that which is wanting
cannot be numbered.

I communed with mine own heart, saying, Lo, I am come to
great estate, and have gotten more wisdom than all they that
have been before me in Jerusalem: yea, my heart had great
experience of wisdom and knowledge.

And I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and
folly: I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit.

For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth
knowledge increaseth sorrow.
