Ecclesiastes 1:9-11

New American Standard Bible

^9 (A)What has been, it is what will be,
And what has been done, it is what will be done.
So there is nothing new under the sun.
¹⁰ Is there anything of which one might say,
“See this, it is new”?
It has already existed for ages
Which were before us.
¹¹ There is ^(B)no remembrance of the ^[a]earlier things,
And of the later things as well, which will occur,
There will be no remembrance of them
Among those who will come later still.
