He hath set eternity in their heart, yet so that man cannot find out the work that God hath done from the beginning even to the end.

—Ecclesiastes 3:11

That which is hath been long ago; and that which is to be hath long ago been: and God seeketh again that which is passed away.

—Ecclesiastes 3:15

Wherefore I saw that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his works; for that is his portion: for who shall bring him back to see what shall be after him?

—Ecclesiastes 3:22
