Ecclesiastes 12:1-7

Remember thy maker in thy youth, before the days of adversity come, and or the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, "I have no pleasure in them"; before the sun, the light, the moon and stars be darkened, and or the clouds turn again after the rain; when the keepers of the house shall tremble, and when the strong men shall bow themselves; when the millers stand still, because they be so few, and when the sight of the windows shall wax dim; read more.
when the doors in the streets shall be shut, and when the voice of the miller shall be laid down; when men shall rise up at the voice of the bird, and when all the daughters of music shall be brought low; When men shall fear in high places, and be afraid in the streets; when the Almond tree shall be despised, the grasshopper born out, and when great poverty shall break in; when man goeth to his long home, and the mourners go about the streets. Before the silver lace be taken away, and or the golden band be broken; or the pot be broken at the well, and the wheel upon the cistern; Or dust be turned again unto earth from whence it came, and or the spirit return unto God, which gave it.
