Ecclesiastes 11:7-9

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁷ Light is sweet, and it is good for eyes to see the sun.

⁸ Yes, even if a man lives many years, in all of them let him find joy, but let him keep in mind the days of darkness, for they will be many. Everything that is to come is vapor.

Advice to the Young

⁹ Young man, be happy while you are a child, and let your heart make you glad during the days of your youth. Walk down the roads on which your heart leads you and on the way your eyes see—but know that for all these, God will bring you into judgment.
