Ecclesiastes 8:8

Good News Translation GNT

New International Version NIV

8 No one can keep from dying or put off the day of death. That is a battle we cannot escape; we cannot cheat our way out.

8 As no one has power over the wind to contain it, so no one has power over the time of their death. As no one is discharged in time of war, so wickedness will not release those who practice it.
