Kohelet 9:10-12
Orthodox Jewish Bible
10 Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy koach; for there is no ma’aseh, nor cheshbon, nor da’as, nor chochmah in Sheol, whither thou goest.
11 I returned, and saw under the shemesh, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the gibborim, neither yet lechem to the chachamim, nor yet osher to the intelligent, nor yet chen (favor) to the experts; but et (time) and pega (chance) happeneth to them all.

10 Whatever(A) your hand finds to do, do it with all your might,(B) for in the realm of the dead,(C) where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom.(D)

The race is not to the swift
or the battle to the strong,(E)
nor does food come to the wise(F)
or wealth to the brilliant
or favor to the learned;
but time and chance(G) happen to them all.(H)
12 Moreover, no one knows when their hour will come:
