For man also knoweth not his time: as the fishes that are taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are caught in the snare; so are the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falleth suddenly upon them.
El hombre tampoco conoce su tiempo: como los peces que son atrapados en la red cruel, y como las aves que caen en la trampa, así son atrapados los hijos de los hombres en el tiempo malo, cuando de repente cae sobre ellos.
Los seres humanos no saben cuándo les llegará la desgracia, y esta los sorprende como una trampa repentina.
📚 Contexto Histórico
Ecclesiastes is traditionally attributed to King Solomon and written during ancient Israel's monarchy around the 10th century BC, a time when people grappled with the fleeting nature of life and human endeavors. In this verse, the author uses everyday images like fish caught in nets and birds in snares, drawn from the common experiences of fishing and hunting in that agrarian society, to illustrate how unexpected events can suddenly trap people. This reflects the broader theme of the book, which explores the unpredictability of life under the sun and the need for wisdom in the face of uncertainty.
