Ecclesiastes 11:9-12:1

⁹Rejoice, O young man, while you are young,

and let your heart be glad in the days of your youth.

Walk in the ways of your heart

and in the sight of your eyes,

but know that for all these things

God will bring you to judgment.

¹⁰So banish sorrow from your heart,

and cast off pain from your body,

for youth and vigor are fleeting.

¹Remember your Creator in the days of your youth,

before the days of adversity come

and the years approach of which you will say,

“I find no pleasure in them,”

— Ecclesiastes 11:9-12:1
