ESV	In the day of prosperity be joyful, and in the day of adversity consider: God has made the one as well as the other, so that man may not find out anything that will be after him.
NIV	When times are good, be happy; but when times are bad, consider: God has made the one as well as the other. Therefore, a man cannot discover anything about his future.
NLT	Enjoy prosperity while you can, but when hard times strike, realize that both come from God. Remember that nothing is certain in this life.
