Ecclesiastes 1:5-7
International Children’s Bible
5 The sun rises, and the sun sets.
Then it hurries back to the place where it rises again.
6 The wind blows to the south.
Then it blows to the north.
It blows from one direction and then another.
Then it turns around and repeats the same pattern, going nowhere.
7 All the rivers flow to the sea.
But the sea never becomes full.

New International Version
Ecclesiastes 1:5-7
New International Version
5 The sun rises and the sun sets,
and hurries back to where it rises.(A)
6 The wind blows to the south
and turns to the north;
round and round it goes,
ever returning on its course.
7 All streams flow into the sea,
yet the sea is never full.
To the place the streams come from,
there they return again.(B)
