Ecclesiastes 8:7-9

⁷Because he is ignorant of things past, and things to come he cannot know by any messenger.

⁸It is not in man’s power to stop the spirit, neither hath he power in the day of death, neither is he suffered to rest when war is at hand, neither shall wickedness save the wicked.

⁹All these things I have considered, and applied my heart to all the works that are done under the sun. Sometimes one man ruleth over another to his own hurt.
