Ecclesiastes 1:3
1 These are the words of the Teacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem:
2 “Futility of futilities,” says the Teacher, “futility of futilities! Everything is futile!”
What does a man gain from all his labor, at which he toils under the sun?
4 Generations come and generations go, but the earth remains forever.
5 The sun rises and the sun sets; it hurries back to where it rises.
