Ecclesiastes 1:2-4, 9

“Vanity of vanities,” says the Preacher, “Vanity of vanities! All is vanity.” What advantage does man have in all his work Which he does under the sun? A generation goes and a generation comes, But the earth remains forever.

That which has been is that which will be, And that which has been done is that which will be done. So there is nothing new under the sun.
