Ecclesiastes 1:10-12

Young's Literal Translation

¹⁰ There is a thing of which [one] saith: `See this, it [is] new!' already it hath been in the ages that were before us!

¹¹ There is not a remembrance of former [generations]; and also of the latter that are, there is no remembrance of them with those that are at the last.

¹² I, a preacher, have been king over Israel in Jerusalem.
