12 And remember your Creator in the days of your youth, before the days of misfortune have come and the years arrive of which you will say, “There is not for me pleasure in them;”
2 before the sun and the light and the moon and the stars are dark
and the clouds return after the rain,
3 on the day when the guards of the house will tremble,
and the men of valor will be bent over,
and the women grinders cease because they are few,
and those who look at the window will grow dark,
4 and the doors will be shut in the street;
when the sound of the grinding is low,
and when a person rises at the sound of the bird,
and all the daughters of the song are humbled;
5 (also they are afraid of the high place,
and terrors are in the way,
and the almond tree blossoms,
and the locusts moves along,
and the caper-fruit fails,
for humanity is going to his eternal home,
and the mourners surround the street)
6 before the cord of silver is removed,
and the bowl of gold is broken,
and the pitcher is shattered at the fountain,
and the wheel is crushed at the cistern,
7 and the dust returns to the earth as that it was,
and the spirit returns to God who gave it.
8 “Vapor of vapors!” says the Qoheleth. “Everything is vapor!”
9 Besides the fact that Qoheleth was wise, he still taught the people knowledge, and he weighed, and he searched. He ordered many proverbs. 10 Qoheleth sought to discover words of pleasure, and words of truth were written rightly. 11 The words of wise people are like goads, and like nails implanted are masters of collections. They are given by one Shepherd. 12 Beyond them, my son, be warned: to the making of many scrolls, there is no end and much study is weariness to the flesh.
13 The end of the matter;
everything has been heard:
Fear God and keep his commandments,
for this is the whole of humanity.
14 For every deed God will bring into judgment,
concerning everything hidden,
whether good or whether evil.
