Ecclesiastes 12:2-5
2before the sunH8121, and the lightH216, and the moonH3394, and the starsH3556, are darkened, and the cloudsH5645 returnH7725 after the rainH1653;
3in the dayH3117 when the keepers of the houseH1004 shall trembleH2111, and the strong menH376 shall bow themselves, and the grinders cease because they are fewH4592, and those that lookH7200 out of the windowsH699 shall be darkened,
4and the doorsH1817 shall be shutH5462 in the streetH7784; when the soundH6963 of the grinding is lowH8217, and one shall riseH6965 up at the voiceH6963 of a birdH6833, and all the daughtersH1323 of music shall be brought lowH8217;
5yea, they shall be afraidH3372 of that which is highH1364, and terrors shall be in the wayH1870; and the almond-tree shall blossom, and the grasshopperH2284 shall be a burden, and desire shall fail; because manH120 goeth to his everlasting home, and the mourners goH1980 about the streetsH7784:
