Ecclesiastes 2:14-16

NSB(i) 14 The wise man's eyes are in his head, but the foolish man walks in darkness. Yet I saw that the same event happens to them all. 15 Then I said in my heart: »As it happens to the fool, so it will happen to me. Why have I been so wise?« Then I said in my heart: »This also is vanity.« 16 Neither the wise man nor the foolish man will be remembered for long. All that now is will be forgotten in the days to come. Death comes to both the wise and the foolish.
