Ecclesiastes 1:7-9

Common English Bible

⁷ All streams flow to the sea,
    but the sea is never full;
    to the place where the rivers flow,
    there they continue to flow.
⁸ All words^[a] are tiring;
    no one is able to speak.
    The eye isn’t satisfied with seeing,
    neither is the ear filled up by hearing.
⁹ Whatever has happened—that’s what will happen again;
    whatever has occurred—that’s what will occur again.
