Revelation 9:6

Καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις ζητήσουσιν οἱ ἄνθρωποι τὸν θάνατον, καὶ οὐ μὴ εὑρήσουσιν αὐτόν· καὶ ἐπιθυμήσουσιν ἀποθανεῖν, καὶ φεύξεται ἀπ' αὐτῶν ὁ θάνατος.
Kai en tais ēmerais ekeinais zētēsoysin oi anthrōpoi ton thanaton, kai oy mē eyrēsoysin ayton· kai epithymēsoysin apothanein, kai pheyxetai ap' aytōn o thanatos.
King James Version (KJV)

And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.

Modern English

During those days people will seek death but will not find it; they will long to die, but death will elude them.
