Ecclesiastes 11:7-8

GNT

NIV

7 It is good to be able to enjoy the pleasant light of day.
7 Light is sweet, and it pleases the eyes to see the sun.
8 Be grateful for every year you live. No matter how long you live, remember that you will be dead much longer. There is nothing at all to look forward to.
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.
