Ecclesiastes 6:10 in the King James Version
That which hath been is named already, and it is known that it is man: neither may he contend with him that is mightier than he.
Context
9 Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire. This also is vanity and a chasing after wind.
10 Whatever has been, its name was given long ago; and it is known what man is; neither can he contend with him who is mightier than he.
11 For there are many words that create vanity. What does that profit man?
