Youthful Joy and Divine Judgment

Ecclesiastes 11:9

Showing verse 9 with surrounding context.

In the morning, sow your seed; and don't slack off until evening; for you don't know which sowing will succeed, this, or that, or if both will do well.

Then the light will be sweet, and it will be a pleasure to see the sun. 1086

For if a person lives many years, let him take joy in them all; yet remembering that there will be many days of darkness, that all to come is futile.

Young person, if you spend your youth only having fun, if you use your early years just to entertain yourself, if you follow your heart as you live your life, and let your eyes be your guide; understand that for all these things God will bring you to judgment.

Therefore, remove anger from your heart; and keep from harming your body; for neither adolescence nor youth has any lasting value.
