| Common English Bible (CEB) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 9 I observed all of this as I paid attention to all that happens under the sun. Sometimes people exercise power over each other to their detriment. | 9 All this I saw, as I applied my mind to everything done under the sun. There is a time when a man lords it over others to his own hurt. |
