Ecclesiastes 11:8
Ecclesiastes 11:7-8 The Message (MSG)
Oh, how sweet the light of day, And how wonderful to live in the sunshine! Even if you live a long time, don’t take a single day for granted. Take delight in each light-filled hour, Remembering that there will also be many dark days And that most of what comes your way is smoke.
Ecclesiastes 11:8 King James Version (KJV)
but if a man live many years, and rejoice in them all; yet let him remember the days of darkness; for they shall be many. All that cometh is vanity.
