Ecclesiastes 9:1 GW/NIV - Online Parallel Bible
| GOD'S WORD Translation (GW) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 1 Now, I have carefully thought about all this, and I explain it in this way: Righteous people and wise people, along with their accomplishments, are in God's hands. No one knows whether there will be love or hatred. | 1 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 man knows whether love or hate awaits him. |
