Ecclesiastes 3:13-15
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
13 And also that every man should eat and drink and enjoy the good of all his labor—it is the gift of God.
14 I know that whatever God does, it endures forever; nothing can be added to it nor anything taken from it. And God does it so that men will [reverently] fear Him [revere and worship Him, knowing that He is].(A)
15 That which is now already has been, and that which is to be already has been; and God seeks that which has passed by [so that history repeats itself].
