Ecclesiastes 8:6-9

⁶For to every thing there is time and judgment; for the knowledge of a man is great to him.

⁷For there is no one that knows what is going to be: for who shall tell him how it shall be?

⁸There is no man that has power over the spirit to retain the spirit; and there is no power in the day of death: and there is no discharge in the day of battle; neither shall ungodliness save her votary.

⁹So I saw all this, and I applied my heart to every work that has been done under the sun; all the things wherein man has power over man to afflict him.
