Ecclesiastes Chapter 12 - King James Strong Number Version

1: Remember <H2142> now thy Creator <H1254> in the days <H3117> of thy youth, <H0979> while the evil <H7451> days <H3117> come <H0935> not, nor the years <H8141> draw nigh, <H5060> when thou shalt say, <H0559> I have no pleasure <H2656> in them;
2: While the sun, <H8121> or the light, <H0216> or the moon, <H3394> or the stars, <H3556> be not darkened, <H2821> nor the clouds <H5645> return <H7725> after <H0310> the rain: <H1653>
3: In the day <H3117> when the keepers <H8104> of the house <H1004> shall tremble, <H2111> and the strong <H2428> men <H0582> shall bow <H5791> themselves, and the grinders <H2912> cease <H0988> because they are few, <H4591> and those that look <H7200> out of the windows <H0699> be darkened, <H2821>
4: And the doors <H1817> shall be shut <H5462> in the streets, <H7784> when the sound <H6963> of the grinding <H2913> is low, <H8217> and he shall rise up <H6965> at the voice <H6963> of the bird, <H6833> and all the daughters <H1323> of musick <H7892> shall be brought low; <H7817>
5: Also [when] they shall be afraid <H3372> of [that which is] high, <H1364> and fears <H2849> [shall be] in the way, <H1870> and the almond tree <H8247> shall flourish, <H5006> and the grasshopper <H2284> shall be a burden, <H5445> and desire <H0035> shall fail: <H6565> because man <H0120> goeth <H1980> to his long <H5769> home, <H1004> and the mourners <H5594> go about <H5437> the streets: <H7784>
6: Or ever <H3808> the silver <H3701> cord <H2256> be loosed, <H7576> or the golden <H2091> bowl <H1543> be broken, <H7533> or the pitcher <H3537> be broken <H7665> at the fountain, <H4002> or the wheel <H1534> broken <H7533> at the cistern. <H0953>
7: Then shall the dust <H6083> return <H7725> to the earth <H0776> as it was: and the spirit <H7307> shall return <H7725> unto God <H0430> who gave <H5414> it.
8: Vanity <H1892> of vanities, <H1892> saith <H0559> the preacher; <H6953> all [is] vanity. <H1892>
9: And moreover, <H3148> because the preacher <H6953> was wise, <H2450> he still taught <H3925> the people <H5971> knowledge; <H1847> yea, he gave good heed, <H0239> and sought out, <H2713> [and] set in order <H8626> many <H7235> proverbs. <H4912>
10: The preacher <H6953> sought <H1245> to find out <H4672> acceptable <H2656> words: <H1697> and [that which was] written <H3789> [was] upright, <H3476> [even] words <H1697> of truth. <H0571>
11: The words <H1697> of the wise <H2450> [are] as goads, <H1861> and as nails <H4930> fastened <H5193> [by] the masters <H1167> of assemblies, <H0627> [which] are given <H5414> from one <H0259> shepherd. <H7462>
12: And further, <H3148> by these, <H1992> my son, <H1121> be admonished: <H2094> of making <H6213> many <H7235> books <H5612> [there is] no end; <H7093> and much <H7235> study <H3854> [is] a weariness <H3024> of the flesh. <H1320>
13: Let us hear <H8085> the conclusion <H5490> of the whole matter: <H1697> Fear <H3372> God, <H0430> and keep <H8104> his commandments: <H4687> for this [is] the whole [duty] of man. <H0120>
14: For God <H0430> shall bring <H0935> every work <H4639> into judgment, <H4941> with every secret thing, <H5956> whether [it be] good, <H2896> or whether [it be] evil. <H7451>
