Parallel Verses
NASB:
No man has authority to restrain the wind with the wind, or authority over the day of death; and there is no discharge in the time of war, and evil will not deliver those who practice it.
KJV:
There is
no man that hath power over the spirit to retain the spirit; neither
hath he
power in the day of death: and
there is
no discharge in
that
war; neither shall wickedness deliver those that are given to it.
