Ecclesiastes 9:3-6

³This is an evil among all things which take place under the sun, that there is one event to all; therefore also the heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and madness is in their heart while they live, and afterward they go down to the dead.

⁴For who is there that is excepted? With all the living there is hope; for a living dog is better than a dead lion.

⁵For the living know that they shall die; but the dead know not any thing, and there is no more to them any advantage, for their memory is forgotten.

⁶Their love also, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they a portion any more for ever in any thing which taketh place under the sun.
