Ecclesiastes 1:1-5

New King James Version

² “Vanity^(B)[a] of vanities,” says the Preacher;
“Vanity of vanities, ^(C)all is vanity.”

^3 (D)What profit has a man from all his labor
In which he ^[b]toils under the sun?
⁴ One generation passes away, and another generation comes;
^(E)But the earth abides forever.
^5 (F)The sun also rises, and the sun goes down,
And ^[c]hastens to the place where it arose.
