New King James Version

Ecclesiastes 12:1-3 New King James Version (NKJV)

1. Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth,Before the difficult days come,And the years draw near when you say,“I have no pleasure in them”:

2. While the sun and the light,The moon and the stars,Are not darkened,And the clouds do not return after the rain;

3. In the day when the keepers of the house tremble,And the strong men bow down;When the grinders cease because they are few,And those that look through the windows grow dim;
