Ecclesiastes 6:10-12 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

10. Everything that happens was already determined long ago, and we all know that you cannot argue with someone who is stronger than you are.

11. The longer you argue, the more useless it is, and you are no better off.

12. How can anyone know what is best for us in this short, useless life of ours — a life that passes like a shadow? How can we know what will happen in the world after we die?
