Ecclesiastes 1:11

Ecclesiastes 1:11 in 6 English translations. Each links through to the full chapter for context.

New International Version (NIV)

11No one remembers the former generations,

and even those yet to come

will not be remembered

by those who follow them.

11There is no remembrance of the 1:11 Lit first; or formerearlier things,

And of the later things as well, which will occur,

There will be no remembrance of them

Among those who will come later still.

11There is no remembrance of earlier things;

And also of the later things which will occur,

There will be for them no remembrance

Among those who will come later still.

11There is no remembrance of earlier things,

Nor also of the later things that are to come;

There will be for them no remembrance

By generations who will come after them.

11There is no remembrance

of those who came before,

and those yet to come will not be remembered

by those who follow after.

11No one remembers the people of long ago.

Even those who haven’t been born yet

won’t be remembered

by those who will be born after them.
