78. Verily this world brings the appointed terms closer, takes aspirations further away, causes people to perish and changes circumstances. One who tries to overcome it is overpowered by it and one who struggle against it is knocked down by it, whereas it follows the one who renounces it and comes to the one who forsakes it.

78 إنَّ الدُّنيا تُدْنِي الآجالَ، وتَباعِدُ الآمالَ، وتُبيدُ الرِّجالَ، وتُغَيِّرُ الأحْوالَ، مَنْ غالَبَها غالَبَتْهُ (غَلَبَتْهُ)، ومَنْ صارَعَها صَرَعَتْهُ، وَمَنْ عَصاها أطاعَتْهُ، وَمَنْ تَرَكَها أتَتْهُ.
