|---|---|---|
Because to every purpose there is time and judgment, therefore the misery of man [is] great upon him.

For he knoweth not that which shall be: for who can tell him when it shall be?
|
[There is] no man that hath power over the spirit to retain the spirit; neither [hath he] power in the day of death: and [there is] no discharge in [that] war; neither shall wickedness deliver those that are given to it.
