Ecclesiastes 11:5-10 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

5. You don’t know where the wind blows. And you don’t know how a baby grows in its mother’s womb. In the same way, you don’t know what God will do—and he makes everything happen.

6. So begin planting early in the morning, and don’t stop working until evening. You don’t know what might make you rich. Maybe everything you do will be successful.

7. It is good to be alive. It is nice to see the light from the sun.

8. You should enjoy every day of your life, no matter how long you live. But remember that you will die, and you will be dead much longer than you were alive. And after you are dead, you cannot do anything.

9. So young people, enjoy yourselves while you are young. Be happy. Do whatever your heart leads you to do. Do whatever you want, but remember that God will judge you for everything you do.

10. Don’t let your anger control you, and don’t let your body lead you to sin. People do foolish things in the dawn of life while they are young.
