Ecclesiastes 8:17

GNTA

NIV

17 and never be able to understand what God is doing. However hard you try, you will never find out. The wise may claim to know, but they don't.
17 then I saw all that God has done. No one can comprehend what goes on under the sun. Despite all their efforts to search it out, no one can discover its meaning. Even if the wise claim they know, they cannot really comprehend it.
