Ecclesiastes 1:10-12

Expanded Bible

¹⁰ ·Someone might say [^LHere is a common expression],
    “Look, this is new,”
but ·really it has always been here [it was already here long ago].
    It ·was here before we were [existed before our time].
¹¹ ·People don’t remember what happened long ago [^LThere is no remembrance of the past],
    ·and in the future people will not remember what happens now [^Lnor will there be any remembrance of what will be in the future].
·Even later, other people will not remember what was done before them [^LThere is no remembrance of them among those who will exist in the future].
