Ecclesiastes 11:5-10 (New American Standard)
View In My Bible
5
Just as you do not 1know athe path of the wind and 2how bones are formed in the womb of the bpregnant woman, so you do not 3know the activity of God who makes all things.
6
Sow your seed 4in the morning and do not cbe idle in the evening, for you do not know whether dmorning or evening sowing will succeed, or whether both of them alike will be good.
7
The light is pleasant, and it is good for the eyes to 5see the sun.
8
Indeed, if a man should live many years, let him 6rejoice in them all, and let him remember the 7days of darkness, for they will be many. Everything that is to come will be futility.
9
Rejoice, young man, during your childhood, and let your heart be pleasant during the days of young manhood. And follow the eimpulses of your heart and the f8desires of your eyes. Yet know that 9God will bring you to judgment for all these things.
10
So, remove grief and anger from your heart and put away g10pain from your body, because childhood and the prime of life are fleeting.
