Wisdom 2:4-6
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
Wisdom 2:4-6
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
4 Our name will be forgotten in time,
and no one will remember our works;
our life will pass away like the traces of a cloud,
and be scattered like mist
that is chased by the rays of the sun
and overcome by its heat.
5 For our allotted time is the passing of a shadow,
and there is no return from our death,
because it is sealed up and no one turns back.
6 ‘Come, therefore, let us enjoy the good things that exist,
and make use of the creation to the full as in youth.
