Ecclesiastes 1:8-10
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
8 All things[a] are wearisome;
more than one can express;
the eye is not satisfied with seeing,
or the ear filled with hearing.
9 What has been is what will be,
and what has been done is what will be done;
there is nothing new under the sun.
10 Is there a thing of which it is said,
‘See, this is new’?
It has already been,
in the ages before us.

more than one can say.
The eye never has enough of seeing,(A)
nor the ear its fill of hearing.
9 What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;(B)

10 Is there anything of which one can say,
“Look! This is something new”?
It was here already, long ago;
it was here before our time.
