No man has power over the day of death

No man has power over the day of death

Even the strong will one day lose their power. A proverb meaning all are equal before death and the same fate awaits everyone.

("No man has power over the spirit to retain the spirit, nor has he power over the day of death; and there is no discharge in that war, nor will wickedness deliver those who are given to it" – Ecclesiastes 8:8)

Definition (Hebrew)

גַּם הָאָדָם הֶחָזָק סוֹפוֹ יוֹם אֶחָד לְאַבֵּד אֶת כּוֹחוֹ. פִּתְגָּם לְפִיו כֻּלָּם שָׁוִים בִּפְנֵי הַמָּוֶת וְאוֹתוֹ גּוֹרָל מַמְתִּין לְכֻלָּם.

("אֵין אָדָם שַׁלִּיט בָּרוּחַ לִכְלוֹא אֶת הָרוּחַ וְאֵין שִׁלְטוֹן בְּיוֹם הַמָּוֶת וְאֵין מִשְׁלַחַת בַּמִּלְחָמָה וְלֹא יְמַלֵּט רֶשַׁע אֶת בְּעָלָיו"- קוהלת ח ח)
