Ecclesiastes 11:6-8

English Standard Version

⁶ In the morning sow your seed, and at evening ^(A)withhold not your hand, for you do not know which will prosper, this or that, or whether both alike will be good.

⁷ Light is sweet, and it is pleasant for the eyes to ^(B)see the sun.

⁸ So if a person lives many years, let him rejoice in them all; but let him remember ^(C)that the days of darkness will be many. All that comes is ^(D)vanity.^[a]
