New American Standard Bible 1995
Ecclesiastes 9:1-2
1For I have taken all this to my heart and explain 1it that righteous men, wise men, and their deeds are 2in the hand of God. 3Man does not know whether it will be 4love or hatred; anything 5awaits him.
26It is the same for all. There is 7one 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 8is afraid to swear.
