Ecclesiastes
- Ecclesiastes 8:4Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto him, What doest thou?For the king’s word is supreme, and who can say to him, “What are you doing?”
- Ecclesiastes 8:8There 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.As no man has power over the wind to contain it, so no one has authority over his day of death. As no one can be discharged in wartime, so wickedness will not release those who practice it.
