Ecclesiastes 1:4 Context
2Uanitie of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanitie of vanities, all is vanitie. 3What profite hath a man of all his labour which hee taketh vnder the Sunne? 4One generation passeth away, and another generation commeth: but the earth abideth for euer. 5The Sunne also ariseth, and the Sunne goeth downe, and hasteth to the place where he arose. 6The winde goeth toward the South, and turneth about vnto the North; it whirleth about continually, and the winde returneth againe according to his circuits.
