Ecclesiastes 1:3-7

³◄What do people gain from all the work that they do here on the earth?/It seems that people gain no lasting benefit from all the work that they do here on the earth.► RHQ

⁴Each year old people die and babies are born, but the earth never changes.

⁵Each morning the sun rises, and each evening it sets, and then it hurries around to where it started from.

⁶The wind blows south, and then it turns around to start blowing towards the north. It goes around and around in circles.

⁷All the streams flow into the sea, but the sea is never full. The water returns to the sky, and when it rains, the water returns to the rivers, and it flows again to the sea.
