Ecclesiastes 1:7-9
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
7 All streams run to the sea,
but the sea is not full;
to the place where the streams flow,
there they continue to flow.
8 All things[a] are wearisome,
more than one can express;
the eye is not satisfied with seeing
or the ear filled with hearing.(A)
9 What has been is what will be,
and what has been done is what will be done;
there is nothing new under the sun.(B)

Ecclesiastes 1:7-9
New International Version
7 All streams flow into the sea,
yet the sea is never full.
To the place the streams come from,
there they return again.(A)
8 All things are wearisome,
more than one can say.
The eye never has enough of seeing,(B)
nor the ear its fill of hearing.
9 What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;(C)
there is nothing new under the sun.
