Ecclesiastes 11:7-10

7Truly the lightH216 is sweetH4966, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyesH5869 to behold the sunH8121. 8Yea, if a manH120 liveH2421 manyH7235 yearsH8141, let him rejoiceH8055 in them all; but let him rememberH2142 the daysH3117 of darknessH2822, for they shall beH1961 manyH7235. All that cometh is vanityH1892.

9RejoiceH8055, O youngH970 manH970, in thy youthH979, and let thy heartH3820 cheer thee in the daysH3117 of thy youthH979, and walkH1980 in the waysH1870 of thy heartH3820, and in the sight of thine eyesH5869; but knowH3045 thou, that for all these thingsH428 GodH430 will bringH935 thee into judgmentH4941. 10Therefore removeH5493 sorrow from thy heartH3820, and put awayH5493 evilH7451 from thy fleshH1320; for youthH3208 and the dawn of life are vanityH1892.
