Ecclesiastes 8:8–10 (DARBY)

8  There is no man who hath control over the spirit to retain the spirit; and no one hath control over the day of death; and there is no discharge in that war, neither shall wickedness deliver those that are given to it.

9  All this have I seen, and applied my heart unto every work that is done under the sun: there is a time when man ruleth man to his hurt. 10  And I have also seen the wicked buried and going away; and such as had acted rightly went from the holy place, and were forgotten in the city. This also is vanity.
