1 Remember also your Creator in days of your youth, || While that the evil days do not come, || Nor the years have arrived, that you say, || “I have no pleasure in them.” 2 While that the sun is not darkened, and the light, || And the moon, and the stars, || And the thick clouds returned after the rain. 3 In the day that keepers of the house tremble, || And men of strength have bowed themselves, || And grinders have ceased, because they have become few. And those looking out at the windows have become dim, 4 And doors have been shut in the street. When the noise of the grinding is low, || And [one] rises at the voice of the bird, || And all daughters of song are bowed down. Ecclesiastes 12:1-4, Literal Standard Version.
