Ecclesiastes 1:8-10
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
8 All things are hard: man cannot explain them by word. The eye is not filled with seeing, neither is the ear filled with hearing.
9 What is it that hath been? the same thing that shall be. What is it that hath been done? the same that shall be done.
10 Nothing under the sun is new, neither is any man able to say: Behold this is new: for it hath already gone before in the ages that were before us.

Ecclesiastes 1:8-10
New International Version
8 All things are wearisome,
more than one can say.
The eye never has enough of seeing,(A)
nor the ear its fill of hearing.
9 What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;(B)
there is nothing new under the sun.
10 Is there anything of which one can say,
“Look! This is something new”?
It was here already, long ago;
it was here before our time.
