'All is Vanity' in the Bible
Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher; vanity of vanities, all is vanity.
I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and a striving after wind.
Then I looked on all the works that my hands had done, and on the labor that I had labored to do; and, behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit; and there is no profit under the sun.
So I hated life, because the work that is wrought under the sun was grievous unto me; for all is vanity and a striving after wind.
For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; and man hath no preeminence above the beasts: for all is vanity.
Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher; all is vanity.
