15 What has been made, the same continues. What is in the future, has already existed. And God restores what has passed away.
16 I saw under the sun: instead of judgment, impiety, and instead of justice, iniquity.
17 And I said in my heart: 'God will judge the just and the impious, and then the time for each matter shall be.'
18 I said in my heart, about the sons of men, that God would test them, and reveal them to be like wild animals.
19 For this reason, the passing away of man and of beasts is one, and the condition of both is equal. For as a man dies, so also do they die. All things breathe similarly, and man has nothing more than beast; for all these are subject to vanity.
