All things are full of weariness;
    a man cannot utter it;
(A)the eye is not satisfied with seeing,
    nor the ear filled with hearing.
(B)What has been is what will be,
    and what has been done is what will be done,
    and there is nothing new under the sun.
10 Is there a thing of which it is said,
    “See, this is new”?
It has been (C)already
    in the ages before us.
11 There is no (D)remembrance of former things,[a]
    nor will there be any remembrance
of later things[b] yet to be
    among those who come after.
