"For he doesn't know that which will be; for who can tell him how it will be?"
— Ecclesiastes 8:7, World English Bible
“For he knoweth not that which shall be: for who can tell him when it shall be?”
“for he knoweth not that which shall be; for who can tell him how it shall be? ”
“Surely no one knows the future, and no one can tell another person what will happen.”
“Because he is ignorant of things past, and things to come he cannot know by any messenger.”
“No one is certain what is to be, and who is able to say to him when it will be?”
“For he knoweth not that which shall be: for who can tell him when it shall be?”
for the king's word is supreme. Who can say to him, "What are you doing?"
Whoever keeps the commandment shall not come to harm, and his wise heart will know the time and procedure.
For there is a time and procedure for every purpose, although the misery of man is heavy on him.
For he doesn't know that which will be; for who can tell him how it will be?
There is no man who has power over the spirit to contain the spirit; neither does he have power over the day of death. There is no discharge in war; neither shall wickedness deliver those who practice it.
All this have I seen, and applied my mind to every work that is done under the sun. There is a time in which one man has power over another to his hurt.
So I saw the wicked buried. Indeed they came also from holiness. They went and were forgotten in the city where they did this. This also is vanity.
