AKA "Nothing can stop what's coming" 6th century version

 

Fate

by: Theognis of Megara (6th century B.C.)

translated by James Davies

 

No costly sacrifice nor offerings given

Can change the purpose of the powers of Heaven;

Whatever Fate ordains, danger or hurt,

Or death predestined, nothing can avert.
