Wis 2:6
King James Version
“Come on therefore, let us enjoy the good things that are present: and let us speedily use the creatures like as in youth.”
Context
3Which being extinguished, our body shall be turned into ashes, and our spirit shall vanish as the soft air,
4And our name shall be forgotten in time, and no man shall have our works in remembrance, and our life shall pass away as the trace of a cloud, and shall be dispersed as a mist, that is driven away with the beams of the sun, and overcome with the heat thereof.
5For our time is a very shadow that passeth away; and after our end there is no returning: for it is fast sealed, so that no man cometh again.
6Come on therefore, let us enjoy the good things that are present: and let us speedily use the creatures like as in youth.
7Let us fill ourselves with costly wine and ointments: and let no flower of the spring pass by us:
8Let us crown ourselves with rosebuds, before they be withered:
9Let none of us go without his part of our voluptuousness: let us leave tokens of our joyfulness in every place: for this is our portion, and our lot is this.
