Suosittuja jakeita Raamatun kirjasta Ecclesiastes 1

Jaa

For with much wisdom is much sorrow;  as knowledge increases, grief increases.

What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done; there is nothing new under the sun.

All things  are wearisome, more than anyone can say. The eye is not satisfied by seeing  or the ear filled with hearing.

“Absolute futility,” says the Teacher. “Absolute futility. Everything is futile.”  What does a person gain for all his efforts that he labors at under the sun?

I have seen all the things that are done under the sun and have found everything to be futile, a pursuit of the wind. 

A generation goes and a generation comes, but the earth remains forever.

There is no remembrance of those who   came before;  and of those who will come after there will also be no remembrance by those who follow them.

I applied my mind to know wisdom and knowledge,  madness and folly;  I learned that this too is a pursuit of the wind.
