Ecclesiastes 9:2-3
New King James Version
2 (A)All things come alike to all:
One event happens to the righteous and the wicked;
To the [a]good, the clean, and the unclean;
To him who sacrifices and him who does not sacrifice.
As is the good, so is the sinner;
He who takes an oath as he who fears an oath.
3 This is an evil in all that is done under the sun: that one thing happens to all. Truly the hearts of the sons of men are full of evil; madness is in their hearts while they live, and after that they go to the dead.

And remember it as waters that have passed away,
17 And your life (F)would be brighter than noonday.
Though you were dark, you would be like the morning.
18 And you would be secure, because there is hope;
Yes, you would dig around you, and (G)take your rest in safety.
19 You would also lie down, and no one would make you afraid;
Yes, many would court your favor.
