Ecclesiastes 12:1-3
New International Reader's Version
12 Remember your Creator.
Remember him while you are still young.
Think about him before your times of trouble come.
The years will come when you will say,
“I don’t find any pleasure in them.”
2 That’s when the sunlight will become dark.
The moon and the stars will also grow dark.
And the clouds will return after it rains.
3 Remember your Creator before those who guard the house tremble with old age.
That’s when strong men will be bent over.
The women who grind grain will stop because there are so few of them left.
Those who look through the windows won’t be able to see very well.
