Ecclesiastes 12:1-3 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

1. Remember your Creator in the days of your youth,before the evil days comeAnd the years approach of which you will say,“I have no pleasure in them”;

2. Before the sun is darkenedand the light and the moon and the starsand the clouds return after the rain;

3. When the guardians of the house tremble,and the strong men are bent;When the women who grind are idle because they are few,and those who look through the windows grow blind;
