传道书 11
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
世事难测宜忠心勤劳
11 要把你的粮食撒在水面上，因为日久你必得回。 2 你要分为七份，或分为八份，因为你不知道将来会有甚么灾祸在地上发生。 3 云若充满水气，雨就倾倒在地上；树无论向南倒，或向北倒，倒在哪里，就横在哪里。 4 看风的，不撒种；观云的，不收割。 5 你不晓得风的路向，不知道骨头如何在孕妇胎中形成，照样，创造万物之 神的作为，你也不得而知。 6 早晨要撒你的种，直到黄昏也不要歇手；因为你不知道哪一样种得成，是早撒的，或晚撒的，或两者都一样好。
当趁壮年记念主
7 光是美好的，眼睛得见天日，也是好的。 8 人无论多长寿，都当乐在其中，不过他要想到黑暗的日子，因为这些日子将会很多；要来的，都是虚空的。
9 年轻人哪！你在幼年时要快乐，在壮年的日子，要使你的心欢畅；顺着你心所愿的，眼所见的去行。不过，你要知道，为了这一切事， 神必审问你。 10 所以你当除掉心中的烦恼，除去肉体的疾苦，因为无论是幼年或是壮年，都是虚空的。
Ecclesiastes 11
New King James Version
The Value of Diligence
11 Cast your bread (A)upon the waters,
(B)For you will find it after many days.
2 (C)Give a serving (D)to seven, and also to eight,
(E)For you do not know what evil will be on the earth.
3 If the clouds are full of rain,
They empty themselves upon the earth;
And if a tree falls to the south or the north,
In the place where the tree falls, there it shall lie.
4 He who observes the wind will not sow,
And he who regards the clouds will not reap.
5 As (F)you do not know what is the way of the [a]wind,
(G)Or how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child,
So you do not know the works of God who makes everything.
6 In the morning sow your seed,
And in the evening do not withhold your hand;
For you do not know which will prosper,
Either this or that,
Or whether both alike will be good.
7 Truly the light is sweet,
And it is pleasant for the eyes (H)to behold the sun;
8 But if a man lives many years
And (I)rejoices in them all,
Yet let him (J)remember the days of darkness,
For they will be many.
All that is coming is vanity.
Seek God in Early Life
9 Rejoice, O young man, in your youth,
And let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth;
(K)Walk in the [b]ways of your heart,
And [c]in the sight of your eyes;
But know that for all these
(L)God will bring you into judgment.
10 Therefore remove [d]sorrow from your heart,
And (M)put away evil from your flesh,
(N)For childhood and [e]youth are vanity.
