Ecclesiastes 1:3-5

EasyEnglish Bible

³ People work very hard while they live on the earth.
    But in the end, what do they receive in return for their work?
⁴ Old people die and then their children live after them.
    But the earth continues and it never changes.
⁵ The sun rises in the morning and it disappears in the evening.
    Then it quickly moves to rise again the next morning.
