Mankind Is in the Hand of God

9 For I have given all this to my heart and explain ^[a]it that righteous men, wise men, and their service are ^(A)in the hand of God. ^(B)Man does not know whether it will be ^(C)love or hatred; anything may be before him.

^2 (D)It is the same for all. There is ^(E)one fate for the righteous and for the wicked; for the good, for the clean and for the unclean; for the man who offers a sacrifice and for the one who does not sacrifice. As the good man is, so is the sinner; as the swearer is, so is the one who ^[b]is afraid to swear. ³ This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that there is ^(F)one fate for all. Furthermore, ^(G)the hearts of the sons of men are full of evil, and ^(H)madness is in their hearts throughout their lives. Afterwards they go to the dead.
