Thread: Quip Of The Day

I’m the one that’s got to die when it’s time for me to die, so let me live my life the way I want to.

Yes, Bob Marley did sing this.

But, I think you got to give to writer's credit to Matthew (16:26) and Solomon (Proverbs 3:14).

Just sayin.

So that is the King James version compared to the Bob Marley version.

Thanks MrHuston I appreciate your input. Not big on reading scripture but I know many things said today, relate back in someway, to things written there.

Also I believe Bob Marley did kind of paraphrase the scripture you mentioned

To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.
