'Befalls' in the Bible
If you take this one also from me, and harm befalls him, you will bring my gray hair down to Sheol in sorrow.’
This will be the sign to you which shall come concerning your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas: on the same day both of them shall die.
“For what I fear comes upon me,And what I dread befalls me.
No harm befalls the righteous,But the wicked are filled with trouble.
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.
For the [earthly] fate of the sons of men and the fate of animals is the same. As one dies, so dies the other; indeed, they all have the same breath and there is no preeminence or advantage for man [in and of himself] over an animal, for all is vanity.
I looked again and saw under the sun that the race [does] not [belong] to the swift, the battle [does] not [belong] to the mighty, food [does] not [belong] to the wise, wealth [does] not [belong] to the intelligent, and success [does] not [belong] to the skillful, for time and chance befalls all of them.
