Ecclesiastes 4:2

² Wherefore I praised the dead which are already dead more than the living which are yet alive.

⁶ Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun.

⁷ Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works.

¹⁰ Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.

¹² And I turned myself to behold wisdom, and madness, and folly: for what can the man do that cometh after the king? even that which hath been already done.

¹⁶ For there is no remembrance of the wise more than of the fool for ever; seeing that which now is in the days to come shall all be forgotten. And how dieth the wise man? as the fool.

¹⁵ That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.

¹⁰ That which hath been is named named already, and it is known that it is man: neither may he contend with him that is mightier than he.
