Ecclesiastes 12:5-7

Legacy Standard Bible

⁵ Furthermore, ^[a]men are afraid of a high place and of terrors on the road; the almond tree blooms, the grasshopper drags itself along, and the caperberry is ineffective. For man goes to his eternal ^(A)home, but the ^(B)mourners go about in the street. ⁶ Remember Him before the silver ^[b]cord is ^[c]snapped and the ^(C)golden bowl is crushed, the pitcher by the spring is broken and the wheel at the cistern is crushed; ⁷ then the ^(D)dust will return to the earth as it was, and the ^[d](E)spirit will return to ^(F)God who gave it.
