Ecclesiastes 1:1

1 The words of the Preacher, the son of David, ^aking in Jerusalem.

2 “Vanity¹^a of vanities,” says the Preacher;
“Vanity of vanities, ^ball is vanity.”

3 ^aWhat profit has a man from all his labor
In which he¹ toils under the sun?

4 One generation passes away, and another generation comes;
^aBut the earth abides forever.

5 ^aThe sun also rises, and¹ the sun goes down,
And hastens to the place where it arose.

6 ^aThe wind goes toward the south,
And turns around to the north;
The wind whirls about continually,
And comes again on its circuit.
