Ecclesiastes 8:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 He that keepeth the commandment, shall know none evil thing, and the heart of the wise shall know the [a]time, and judgment.
6 For to every purpose there is a time and judgment, because the [b]misery of man is great upon him.
7 For he knoweth not that which shall be: for who can tell him when it shall be?
