Ecclesiastes 11:6-8

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁶ In the morning sow your seed, and at evening do not let your hands be idle; for you do not know which will prosper, this or that, or whether both alike will be good.

Youth and Old Age

⁷ Light is sweet, and it is pleasant for the eyes to see the sun.

⁸ Even those who live for many years should rejoice in them all; yet let them remember that the days of darkness will be many. All that comes is vanity.
