Ecclesiastes 9:2-3
New American Standard Bible 1995
2 (A)It is the same for all. There is (B)one fate for the righteous and for the wicked; for the good, for the clean and for the unclean; for the man who offers a sacrifice and for the one who does not sacrifice. As the good man is, so is the sinner; as the swearer is, so is the one who [a]is afraid to swear. 3 This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that there is (C)one fate for all men. Furthermore, (D)the hearts of the sons of men are full of evil and (E)insanity is in their hearts throughout their lives. Afterwards they go to the dead.
