Ecclesiastes 1:11
New King James Version
11 There is (A)no remembrance of former things,
Nor will there be any remembrance of things that are to come
By those who will come after.
Ecclesiastes 2:16
New King James Version
16 For there is (A)no more remembrance of the wise than of the fool forever,
Since all that now is will be forgotten in the days to come.
And how does a wise man die?
As the fool!
Psalm 9:6
New King James Version
6 O enemy, destructions are finished forever!
And you have destroyed cities;
Even their memory has (A)perished.
Ecclesiastes 9:5
New King James Version
5 For the living know that they will die;
But (A)the dead know nothing,
And they have no more reward,
For (B)the memory of them is forgotten.
Isaiah 42:9
New King James Version
9 Behold, the former things have come to pass,
And new things I declare;
Before they spring forth I tell you of them.”
Isaiah 41:22-26
New King James Version
22 “Let(A) them bring forth and show us what will happen;
Let them show the (B)former things, what they were,
That we may [a]consider them,
And know the latter end of them;
Or declare to us things to come.
23 (C)Show the things that are to come hereafter,
That we may know that you are gods;
Yes, (D)do good or do evil,
That we may be dismayed and see it together.
24 Indeed (E)you are nothing,
And your work is nothing;
He who chooses you is an abomination.
25 “I have raised up one from the north,
And he shall come;
From the [b]rising of the sun (F)he shall call on My name;
(G)And he shall come against princes as though mortar,
As the potter treads clay.
26 (H)Who has declared from the beginning, that we may know?
And former times, that we may say, ‘He is righteous’?
Surely there is no one who shows,
Surely there is no one who declares,
Surely there is no one who hears your words.
