Ecclesiastes 6:10

מַה שֶּׁהָיָ֗ה כְּבָ֤ר נִקְרָא֙ שְׁמ֔וֹ וְנוֹדָ֖ע אֲשֶׁ֣ר ה֣וּא אָדָ֑ם וְלֹ֥א יוּכַ֛ל לָדִ֖ין עִ֥ם שֶׁתַּקִּ֖יף מִמֶּֽנּוּ׃
mah shehayah kbar niqraʾ shmvo vnvodaʿ ʾasher hvʾ ʾadam vloʾ yvkal ladiyn ʿim shetaqiyf mimenv
King James Version (KJV)

That which hath been is named already, and it is known that it is man: neither may he contend with him that is mightier than he.

Modern English

Whatever has come to be has already been named, and it is known what man is, and that he is not able to dispute with one stronger than he.
