Ecclesiastes 11:6-8
The Message
6 Go to work in the morning
and stick to it until evening without watching the clock.
You never know from moment to moment
how your work will turn out in the end.
Before the Years Take Their Toll
7-8 Oh, how sweet the light of day,
And how wonderful to live in the sunshine!
Even if you live a long time, don’t take a single day for granted.
Take delight in each light-filled hour,
Remembering that there will also be many dark days
And that most of what comes your way is smoke.
Ecclesiastes 11:6-8
New International Version
6 Sow your seed in the morning,
and at evening let your hands not be idle,(A)
for you do not know which will succeed,
whether this or that,
or whether both will do equally well.
Remember Your Creator While Young
