6For to every delight there is a time and a judgment, for the misfortune of man is great upon him.
7For he knoweth not that which shall be, for when it shall be who declareth to him?
8There is no man ruling over the spirit to restrain the spirit, and there is no authority over the day of death, and there is no discharge in battle, and wickedness delivereth not its possessors.
9All this I have seen so as to give my heart to every work that hath been done under the sun; a time that man hath ruled over man to his own evil.
10And so I have seen the wicked buried, and they went in, even from the Holy Place they go, and they are forgotten in the city whether they had so done. This also [is] vanity.
11Because sentence hath not been done [on] an evil work speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of man is full within them to do evil.
12Though a sinner is doing evil a hundred [times], and prolonging [himself] for it, surely also I know that there is good to those fearing God, who fear before Him.
