Ecclesiastes 1:3
King James VersionSource notes
“What profit hath a man of all his labour which he taketh under the sun?”
Context
1The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.
2Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all vanity.
3What profit hath a man of all his labour which he taketh under the sun?
4generation passeth away, and generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever.
5The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose.
6The wind goeth toward the south, and turneth about unto the north; it whirleth about continually, and the wind returneth again according to his circuits.
