¹⁵ Whatever is has been before, and what is to be is now; because God makes search for the things which are past.

⁹ That which has been, is that which is to be, and that which has been done, is that which will be done, and there is no new thing under the sun.

¹⁰ Is there anything of which men say, See, this is new? It has been in the old time which was before us.

¹⁰ That which is, has been named before, and of what man is there is knowledge. He has no power against one stronger than he.
