Ecclesiastes 11:8
King James VersionSource notes
“But if a man live many years, rejoice in them all; yet let him remember the days of darkness; for they shall be many. All that cometh vanity.”
Context
5As thou knowest not what the way of the spirit, how the bones in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.
6In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both alike good.
7Truly the light sweet, and a pleasant for the eyes to behold the sun:
8But if a man live many years, rejoice in them all; yet let him remember the days of darkness; for they shall be many. All that cometh vanity.
9Rejoice, 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 God will bring thee into judgment.
10Therefore remove sorrow from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh: for childhood and youth vanity.
