4 A generation goes and a generation comes,

but the earth remains forever.e

5 The sun rises and the sun sets;

panting, it hurries back to the placef

where it rises.

6 Gusting to the south,

turning to the north,

turning, turning, goes the wind,g

and the wind returns in its cycles.

7 All the streams flow to the sea,

yet the sea is never full;

to the place where the streams flow,

there they flow again.
