Ecclesiastes 12:1; Ecclesiastes 12:8; Ecclesiastes 12:13-14

Ecclesiastes 12:1

1 Don’t let the excitement of youth cause you to forget your Creator. Honor him in your youth before you grow old and say, “Life is not pleasant anymore.”

Ecclesiastes 12:8

8 “Everything is meaningless,” says the Teacher, “completely meaningless.”

Ecclesiastes 12:13-14

13 That’s the whole story. Here now is my final conclusion: Fear God and obey his commands, for this is everyone’s duty.

14 God will judge us for everything we do, including every secret thing, whether good or bad.
