Ecclesiastes 1:10-13

¹⁰Who is he that shall speak and say, Behold, this is new? It has already been in the ages That have passed before us.

¹¹There is no memorial to the first things; Neither to the things that have been last Shall their memorial be With them that shall be at the last time.

¹²I the Preacher Was king over Israel in Jerusalem.

¹³And I applied my heart to seek out And examine by wisdom concerning all things That are done under heaven, For God has given to the sons of men An evil trouble To be troubled therewith.
