Ecclesiastes 11:7--12:8

Truly the light
<0216>

[is] sweet
<04966>_,

and a pleasant
<02896>

[thing it is] for the eyes
<05869>

to behold
<07200> (8800)

the sun
<08121>_:

But if a man
<0120>

live
<02421> (8799)

many
<07235> (8687)

years
<08141>_,

[and] rejoice
<08055> (8799)

in them all; yet let him remember
<02142> (8799)

the days
<03117>

of darkness
<02822>_;

for they shall be many
<07235> (8687)_.

All that cometh
<0935> (8804)

[is] vanity
<01892>_.

Rejoice
<08055> (8798)_,

O young man
<0970>_,

in thy youth
<03208>_;

and let thy heart
<03820>

cheer
<02895> (8686)

thee in the days
<03117>

of thy youth
<0979>_,

and walk
<01980> (8761)

in the ways
<01870>

of thine heart
<03820>_,

and in the sight
<04758>

of thine eyes
<05869>_:

but know
<03045> (8798)

thou, that for all these [things] God
<0430>

will bring
<0935> (8686)

thee into judgment
<04941>_.

Therefore remove
<05493> (8685)

sorrow
<03708>

from thy heart
<03820>_,

and put away
<05674> (8685)

evil
<07451>

from thy flesh
<01320>_:

for childhood
<03208>

and youth
<07839>

[are] vanity
<01892>_.

{sorrow: or, anger}

Remember
<02142> (8798)

now thy Creator
<01254> (8802)

in the days
<03117>

of thy youth
<0979>_,

while the evil
<07451>

days
<03117>

come
<0935> (8799)

not, nor the years
<08141>

draw nigh
<05060> (8689)_,

when thou shalt say
<0559> (8799)_,

I have no pleasure
<02656>

in them;

While the sun
<08121>_,

or the light
<0216>_,

or the moon
<03394>_,

or the stars
<03556>_,

be not darkened
<02821> (8799)_,

nor the clouds
<05645>

return
<07725> (8804)

after
<0310>

the rain
<01653>_:

In the day
<03117>

when the keepers
<08104> (8802)

of the house
<01004>

shall tremble
<02111> (8799)_,

and the strong
<02428>

men
<0582>

shall bow
<05791> (8694)

themselves, and the grinders
<02912> (8802)

cease
<0988> (8804)

because they are few
<04591> (8765)_,

and those that look out
<07200> (8802)

of the windows
<0699>

be darkened
<02821> (8804)_,

{the grinders...: or, the grinders fail, because they grind little}

And the doors
<01817>

shall be shut
<05462> (8795)

in the streets
<07784>_,

when the sound
<06963>

of the grinding
<02913>

is low
<08217>_,

and he shall rise up
<06965> (8799)

at the voice
<06963>

of the bird
<06833>_,

and all the daughters
<01323>

of musick
<07892>

shall be brought low
<07817> (8735)_;

Also [when] they shall be afraid
<03372> (8799)

of [that which is] high
<01364>_,

and fears
<02849>

[shall be] in the way
<01870>_,

and the almond tree
<08247>

shall flourish
<05006> (8686)_,

and the grasshopper
<02284>

shall be a burden
<05445> (8691)_,

and desire
<035>

shall fail
<06565> (8686)_:

because man
<0120>

goeth
<01980> (8802)

to his long
<05769>

home
<01004>_,

and the mourners
<05594> (8802)

go about
<05437> (8804)

the streets
<07784>_:

Or ever
<03808>

the silver
<03701>

cord
<02256>

be loosed
<07576> (8735) (8675) <07368> (8735)_,

or the golden
<02091>

bowl
<01543>

be broken
<07533> (8799)_,

or the pitcher
<03537>

be broken
<07665> (8735)

at the fountain
<04002>_,

or the wheel
<01534>

broken
<07533> (8738)

at the cistern
<0953>_.

Then shall the dust
<06083>

return
<07725> (8799)

to the earth
<0776>

as it was: and the spirit
<07307>

shall return
<07725> (8799)

unto God
<0430>

who gave
<05414> (8804)

it.

Vanity
<01892>

of vanities
<01892>_,

saith
<0559> (8804)

the preacher
<06953>_;

all [is] vanity
<01892>_.
