Ecclesiastes 1:9-11

Good News Translation

⁹ What has happened before will happen again. What has been done before will be done again. There is nothing new in the whole world. ¹⁰ “Look,” they say, “here is something new!” But no, it has all happened before, long before we were born. ¹¹ No one remembers what has happened in the past, and no one in days to come will remember what happens between now and then.
