Ecclesiastes 3:8; Ecclesiastes 8:8; Ecclesiastes 9:11

Ecclesiastes 3:8

8 A time to love and a time to hate; A time for war and a time for peace.

Ecclesiastes 8:8

8 No man has authority to restrain the wind with the wind, or authority over the day of death; and there is no discharge in the time of war, and evil will not deliver those who practice it.

Ecclesiastes 9:11

11 I again saw under the sun that the race is not to the swift and the battle is not to the warriors, and neither is bread to the wise nor wealth to the discerning nor favor to men of ability; for time and chance overtake them all.
