Ecclesiastes 11:7-8

KJV

NIV

7 Truly the light is sweet, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to behold the sun:
7 Light is sweet, and it pleases the eyes to see the sun.
8 But if a man live many years, and rejoice in them all; yet let him remember the days of darkness; for they shall be many. All that cometh is vanity.
8 However many years anyone may live, let them enjoy them all. But let them remember the days of darkness, for there will be many. Everything to come is meaningless.
