Ecclesiastes 12:2-5

2before the sunH8121, and the lightH216, and the moonH3394, and the starsH3556, be darkened, and the cloudsH5645 returnH7725 after the rainH1653;

3in the dayH3117 when the keepers of the houseH1004 trembleH2111, and the strong menH376 bow themselves, and the grinders cease because they are fewH4592, and those that lookH7200 out of the windowsH699 are darkened,

4and the doorsH1817 are shutH5462 toward the streetH7784; when the soundH6963 of the grinding is subdued, and they riseH6965 up at the voiceH6963 of the birdH6833, and all the daughtersH1323 of songH7892 are brought lowH8217;

5they are alsoH1571 afraidH3372 of what is highH1364, and terrors are in the wayH1870, and the almondH8247 is despised, and the grasshopperH2284 is a burden, and the caper-berry is without effect; (for manH120 goeth to his age-long home, and the mourners goH1980 about the streetsH7784;)
