Ecclesiastes 1:5-7
New King James Version
5 (A)The sun also rises, and the sun goes down,
And [a]hastens to the place where it arose.
6 (B)The wind goes toward the south,
And turns around to the north;
The wind whirls about continually,
And comes again on its circuit.
7 (C)All the rivers run into the sea,
Yet the sea is not full;
To the place from which the rivers come,
There they return again.

5 (A)The sun rises, and the sun goes down,
and hastens[a] to the place where it rises.
6 (B)The wind blows to the south
and goes around to the north;
around and around goes the wind,
and on its circuits the wind returns.
7 All (C)streams run to the sea,
but the sea is not full;
to the place where the streams flow,
there they flow again.

nuBibeln (Swedish Contemporary Bible)
5 Solen går upp och solen går ner
och skyndar sig tillbaka dit där den gick upp.
6 Vinden blåser åt söder och vänder mot norr,
fram och tillbaka, om och om igen,
och återvänder alltid till sin gång.
7 Alla floder rinner ut i havet,
men havet blir aldrig fullt,
och dit floderna har runnit förr,
dit återvänder de igen.
