Ecclesiastes 1:5 in Context — Ecclesiastes 1

3 Que proveito tem o homem de todo o seu trabalho que ele trabalha abaixo do sol?

4 Geração vai, e geração vem; porém a terra permanece para sempre.

5 O sol nasce, e o sol se põe; e se apressa ao seu lugar onde nasceu.

6 O vento vai ao sul, e rodeia para o norte; continuamente o vento vai rodeando e voltando aos lugares onde circulou.

7 Todos os rios vão para o mar, e contudo o mar não se enche; ao lugar onde os ribeiros correm, para ali eles voltam a correr.
