NASB
"Is there anything of which one might say, "See this, it is new"? Already it has existed for ages Which were before us."
— Ecclesiastes 1:10, NASB
“Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.”
“Is there a thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been long ago, in the ages which were before us. ”
“Is there a thing of which it may be said, "Behold, this is new?" It has been long ago, in the ages which were before us.”
“Is there anything about which someone can say,“Look at this! It is new!”? It was already done long ago, before our time.”
“Nothing under the sun is new, neither is any man able to say: Behold this is new: for it hath already gone before in the ages that were before us.”
“Is there anything of which men say, See, this is new? It has been in the old time which was before us.”
“Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.”
All the rivers flow into the sea, Yet the sea is not full. To the place where the rivers flow, There they flow again.
All things are wearisome; Man is not able to tell it. The eye is not satisfied with seeing, Nor is the ear filled with hearing.
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.
Is there anything of which one might say, "See this, it is new"? Already it has existed for ages Which were before us.
There is no remembrance of earlier things; And also of the later things which will occur, There will be for them no remembrance Among those who will come later still.
I, the Preacher, have been king over Israel in Jerusalem.
And I set my mind to seek and explore by wisdom concerning all that has been done under heaven. It is a grievous task which God has given to the sons of men to be afflicted with.
