'One' in the Bible

One generation goes and another comes; but the earth is for ever.

For which my soul is still searching, but I have it not; one man among a thousand have I seen; but a woman among all these I have not seen.

No one is certain what is to be, and who is able to say to him when it will be?

Because to all there is one event, to the upright man and to the evil, to the clean and to the unclean, to him who makes an offering and to him who makes no offering; as is the good so is the sinner; he who takes an oath is as he who has fear of it.

This is evil in all things which are done under the sun: that there is one fate for all, and the hearts of the sons of men are full of evil; while they have life their hearts are foolish, and after that--to the dead.
