I Corinthians 10:12
And so finally after many more months of work, all the sages came back to him, and they had come to a unanimous conclusion that the wisdom of the world could be put into a four-word sentence. They told the king that this sentence expresses much. It is chastening in the hour of pride and consoling in the depths of afflictions. And I've reflected on this sentence this week. The sentence of their wisdom was: "This too shall pass."

The origin of the saying "this too shall pass" appears to date back to a story told about King Solomon. It is said that the King, feeling blue, asked his advisors to find him a ring he had seen in a dream. "When I feel satisfied I’m afraid that it won’t last. And when I don’t, I am afraid my sorrow will go on forever. Find me the ring that will ease my suffering." Eventually an advisor met an old jeweler who carved into a simple gold band the Hebrew inscription "gam zeh ya’avor" – "this too shall pass."

I am sorry,sonkysst, but you missed the very essence of the question. the question is WHERE in the bible is this quote. You have given us your feelings. However valid your feelings might be, the question remains unanswered.

It is not in the Bible nor does it reflect any Bible story. The person waiting 14 years, will stop waiting. It seems it is of Arabic lineage.
