9 aThat which has been is what will be,
That which is done is what will be done,
And there is nothing new under the sun.
That which is done is what will be done,
And there is nothing new under the sun.
10 Is there anything of which it may be said,
“See, this is new”?
It has already been in ancient times before us.
“See, this is new”?
It has already been in ancient times before us.
11 There is ano remembrance of former things,
Nor will there be any remembrance of things that are to come
By those who will come after.
Nor will there be any remembrance of things that are to come
By those who will come after.
The Grief of Wisdom
12 I, the Preacher, was king over Israel in Jerusalem.
13 And I set my heart to seek and asearch out by wisdom concerning all that is done under heaven; bthis burdensome task God has given to the sons of man, by which they may be1 exercised.
14 I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and indeed, all is vanity and grasping for the wind.
15 aWhat is crooked cannot be made straight,
And what is lacking cannot be numbered.
And what is lacking cannot be numbered.
