'One' in the Bible
Is there anything of which one might say,“See this, it is new”?Already it has existed for agesWhich were before us.
The wise man’s eyes are in his head, but the fool walks in darkness. And yet I know that one fate befalls them both.
When there is a man who has labored with wisdom, knowledge and skill, then he gives his legacy to one who has not labored with them. This too is vanity and a great evil.
For to a person who is good in His sight He has given wisdom and knowledge and joy, while to the sinner He has given the task of gathering and collecting so that he may give to one who is good in God’s sight. This too is vanity and striving after wind.
For the fate of the sons of men and the fate of beasts is the same. As one dies so dies the other; indeed, they all have the same breath and there is no advantage for man over beast, for all is vanity.
Then I looked again at all the acts of oppression which were being done under the sun. And behold I saw the tears of the oppressed and that they had no one to comfort them; and on the side of their oppressors was power, but they had no one to comfort them.
But better off than both of them is the one who has never existed, who has never seen the evil activity that is done under the sun.

Furthermore, if two lie down together they keep warm, but how can one be warm alone?
And if one can overpower him who is alone, two can resist him. A cord of three strands is not quickly torn apart.
If you see oppression of the poor and denial of justice and righteousness in the province, do not be shocked at the sight; for one official watches over another official, and there are higher officials over them.
Even if the other man lives a thousand years twice and does not enjoy good things—do not all go to one place?”
It is better to listen to the rebuke of a wise manThan for one to listen to the song of fools.
In the day of prosperity be happy,But in the day of adversity consider—God has made the one as well as the otherSo that man will not discover anything that will be after him.
It is good that you grasp one thing and also not let go of the other; for the one who fears God comes forth with both of them.
And I discovered more bitter than death the woman whose heart is snares and nets, whose hands are chains. One who is pleasing to God will escape from her, but the sinner will be captured by her.
“Behold, I have discovered this,” says the Preacher, “adding one thing to another to find an explanation,
which I am still seeking but have not found. I have found one man among a thousand, but I have not found a woman among all these.
If no one knows what will happen, who can tell him when it will happen?
When I gave my heart to know wisdom and to see the task which has been done on the earth (even though one should never sleep day or night),
It is the same for all. There is one fate for the righteous and for the wicked; for the good, for the clean and for the unclean; for the man who offers a sacrifice and for the one who does not sacrifice. As the good man is, so is the sinner; as the swearer is, so is the one who is afraid to swear.
This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that there is one fate for all men. Furthermore, the hearts of the sons of men are full of evil and insanity is in their hearts throughout their lives. Afterwards they go to the dead.
But there was found in it a poor wise man and he delivered the city by his wisdom. Yet no one remembered that poor man.
Wisdom is better than weapons of war, but one sinner destroys much good.
and the doors on the street are shut as the sound of the grinding mill is low, and one will arise at the sound of the bird, and all the daughters of song will sing softly.
The words of wise men are like goads, and masters of these collections are like well-driven nails; they are given by one Shepherd.
