Ecclesiastes 11:9
| ← Ecclesiastes 11:8 | Ecclesiastes 11:9 (KJV) | Ecclesiastes 11:10 → |
|---|---|---|
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.
|
Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of thine eyes: but know thou, that for all these [things] God will bring thee into judgment.
|
Therefore remove sorrow from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh: for childhood and youth [are] vanity.
