ULT No person is a ruler over the spirit to restrain the spirit,
⇔ nor is there authority over the day of death,
⇔ nor is there discharge in war,
⇔ nor will wickedness deliver its masters.
UST We cannot control our breathing,
⇔ and we cannot control when we will stop breathing and die.
⇔ Soldiers are not permitted to go home during a battle,
⇔ and evil people will not be saved by doing what is evil.
BSB § As no man has power over the wind to contain it, so no one has authority over his day of death. As no one can be discharged in wartime, so wickedness will not release those who practice it.
OEB will take? No man can control the day of his death, any more than he can control or restrain the wind. In war there is no discharge. Wrong will secure no immunity for the wrongdoer.
WEB There is no man who has power over the spirit to contain the spirit; neither does he have power over the day of death. There is no discharge in war; neither shall wickedness deliver those who practice it.
NET Just as no one has power over the wind to restrain it,
⇔ so no one has power over the day of his death.
⇔ Just as no one can be discharged during the battle,
⇔ so wickedness cannot rescue the wicked.
LSV There is no man ruling over the spirit to restrain the spirit, and there is no authority over the day of death, and there is no discharge in battle, and wickedness does not deliver its possessors.
FBV No one can hold onto the breath of life; no one can prevent the day when they die. There's no way of escaping that battle, and the wicked won't be saved by their wickedness!
T4T We cannot control the wind,
⇔ and we cannot control when we will die.
⇔ Soldiers are not permitted to go home during a battle,
⇔ and evil people will not be saved by doing what is evil.
LEB • so also no one can control the day of his death. • Just as no one is discharged in time of war, • so wickedness will not deliver the wicked.
¶
BBE No man has authority over the wind, to keep the wind; or is ruler over the day of his death. In war no man's time is free, and evil will not keep the sinner safe.

BRN There is no man that has power over the spirit to retain the spirit; and there is no power in the day of death: and there is no discharge in the day of battle; neither shall ungodliness save her votary.
BrLXX Οὐκ ἔστιν ἄνθρωπος ἐξουσιάζων ἐν πνεύματι, τοῦ κωλύσαι σὺν τὸ πνεῦμα. καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἐξουσία ἐν ἡμέρᾳ θανάτου, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἀποστολὴ ἐν ἡμέρᾳ πολέμου, καὶ οὐ διασώσει ἀσέβεια τὸν παρʼ αὐτῆς.
