2 Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity.
3 What profit does a man have of all his labour which he takes under the sun?
4 One generation passes away, and another generation comes, but the earth abides for ever.
5 The sun arises, and the sun goes down, and with desire returns to his place from which he arises again.
6 The wind goes toward the south and turns about unto the north; it whirls about continually, and the wind returns again according to its circuits.
7 All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, there they return again.
8 All things are full of labour; more than man can express; the eye is not satisfied with seeing nor the ear filled with hearing.
