Ecclesiastes 1:5-7
Lexham English Bible
5 The sun rises, and the sun goes down;
to its place it hurries,[a] and there it rises again.
6 The wind goes to the south and goes around to the north;
around and around it goes, and on its circuit the wind returns.
7 All the streams flow to the sea,
but the sea is never full;
to the place where the streams flow,
there they continue to flow.
Footnotes
- Ecclesiastes 1:5 The MT reads “it gasps for breath,” which is supported by LXX “to draw breath”; the BHS editors suggest “it returns again”
Ecclesiastes 1:5-7
New International Version
5 The sun rises and the sun sets,
and hurries back to where it rises.(A)
6 The wind blows to the south
and turns to the north;
round and round it goes,
ever returning on its course.
7 All streams flow into the sea,
yet the sea is never full.
To the place the streams come from,
there they return again.(B)
