I returned and saw under the sun that— the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to men of understanding, nor favor to men of skill; but time and chance happen to them all.
For man also knows not his time: as fish are taken in an evil net, and as birds are caught in a snare; so are the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falls suddenly upon them.
