Ecclesiastes 1:3-7
Living Bible
3-7 For what does a man get for all his hard work?
Generations come and go, but it makes no difference.[a] The sun rises and sets and hurries around to rise again. The wind blows south and north, here and there, twisting back and forth, getting nowhere. The rivers run into the sea, but the sea is never full, and the water returns again to the rivers and flows again to the sea . . .
