Ecclesiastes 9:12

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

For surely no man knows his time: Like fish caught in a cruel net or birds trapped in a snare, so men are ensnared in an evil time that suddenly falls upon them.

World English Bible (WEB)

For man also doesn’t know his time. As the fish that are taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are caught in the snare, even so are the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falls suddenly on them.

Strong's King James

For man{H120} also knoweth{H3045}{(H8799)} not his time{H6256}: as the fishes{H1709} that are taken{H270}{(H8737)} in an evil{H7451} net{H4685}, and as the birds{H6833} that are caught{H270}{(H8803)} in the snare{H6341}; so{H1992} are the sons{H1121} of men{H120} snared{H3369}{(H8795)} in an evil{H7451} time{H6256}, when it falleth{H5307}{(H8799)} suddenly{H6597} upon them.

Young's Literal Translation

For even man knoweth not his time; as fish that are taken hold of by an evil net, and as birds that are taken hold of by a snare, like these are the sons of man snared at an evil time, when it falleth upon them suddenly.

After a dramatic early morning encounter with King Jesus, I just couldn’t put my Bible down. The F.O.G took a hold of me and this website was born. Learn more about the F.O.G.
