Ecclesiastes 12:3-5

International Standard Version

³ when that day comes, the palace guards will tremble,
    strong men will stoop down,
women grinders will cease because they are few,
    and the sight of^[a] those who peer through the lattice will grow dim.
⁴ The doors to the street will be shut
    when the sound of grinding decreases,
when one wakes up at the song of a bird,
    and all of the singing women are silenced.
⁵ At that time they will fear climbing^[b] heights
    and dangers along the road
while the almond tree will blossom,
    and the grasshopper is weighed down.
Desire will cease,^[c]
    because the person goes to his eternal home,
        and mourners will gather in the marketplace.
