Ecclesiastes 9:1-3
New International Version
A Common Destiny for All
9 So I reflected on all this and concluded that the righteous and the wise and what they do are in God’s hands, but no one knows whether love or hate awaits them.(A) 2 All share a common destiny—the righteous and the wicked, the good and the bad,[a] the clean and the unclean, those who offer sacrifices and those who do not.
As it is with the good,
so with the sinful;
as it is with those who take oaths,
so with those who are afraid to take them.(B)
3 This is the evil in everything that happens under the sun: The same destiny overtakes all.(C) The hearts of people, moreover, are full of evil and there is madness in their hearts while they live,(D) and afterward they join the dead.(E)

Todo está en manos de Dios
9 Pues bien, he tomado todas estas cosas en mi corazón y declaro[a] todo esto: que los justos y los sabios y sus hechos están en la mano de Dios(A). Los hombres no saben(B) ni de amor ni de odio(C), aunque todo está delante de ellos.
2 A todos les sucede lo mismo(D):
Hay una misma suerte para el justo y para el impío;
para el bueno[b], para el limpio y para el inmundo;
para el que ofrece sacrificio y para el que no sacrifica.
Como el bueno, así es el pecador;
como el que jura, así es el que teme jurar[c](E).
3 Este mal hay en todo lo que se hace bajo el sol: que hay una misma suerte para todos(F). Además, el corazón de los hijos de los hombres está lleno de maldad(G) y hay locura(H) en su corazón toda su vida. Después se van a los muertos.

Ecclesiastes 9:1-3
King James Version
9 For all this I considered in my heart even to declare all this, that the righteous, and the wise, and their works, are in the hand of God: no man knoweth either love or hatred by all that is before them.
2 All things come alike to all: there is one event to the righteous, and to the wicked; to the good and to the clean, and to the unclean; to him that sacrificeth, and to him that sacrificeth not: as is the good, so is the sinner; and he that sweareth, as he that feareth an oath.
3 This is an evil among all things that are done under the sun, that there is one event unto all: yea, also the heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and madness is in their heart while they live, and after that they go to the dead.
