Remember God in Your Youth
1你趁着年幼、衰败的日子尚未来到，就是你所说，我毫无喜乐的那些年日未曾临近之先，当记念造你的主。2不要等到日头、光明、月亮、星宿变为黑暗，雨后云彩反回，3看守房屋的发颤，有力的屈身，推磨的稀少就止息，从窗户往外看的都昏暗；4街门关闭，推磨的响声微小，雀鸟一叫，人就起来，唱歌的女子也都衰微。5人怕高处，路上有惊慌，杏树开花，蚱蜢成为重担，人所愿的也都废掉；因为人归他永远的家，吊丧的在街上往来。6银链折断，金罐破裂，瓶子在泉旁损坏，水轮在井口破烂，7尘土仍归于地，灵仍归于赐灵的神。8传道者说：「虚空的虚空，凡事都是虚空。」
1Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come and the years approach when you will say, “I have no pleasure in them”; 2before the sun and the light, the moon and the stars are darkened, and clouds return after the rain; 3on the day that the watchmen of the house tremble, and strong men are bent over, the grinders stop working because they are few, and those who look through windows grow dim; 4and the doors on the street are shut as the sound of the grinding mill is low, and one will arise at the sound of the bird, and all the daughters of song will sing softly. 5Furthermore, people are afraid of a high place and of terrors on the road; the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper drags itself along, and the caper berry is ineffective. For man goes to his eternal home while the mourners move around in the street. 6Remember your Creator before the silver cord is broken and the golden bowl is crushed, the pitcher by the spring is shattered and the wheel at the cistern is crushed; 7then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it. 8“Futility of futilities,” says the Preacher, “all is futility!”
Purpose of the Preacher
9再者，传道者因有智慧，仍将知识教训众人；又默想，又考查，又陈说许多箴言。10传道者专心寻求可喜悦的言语，是凭正直写的诚实话。
9In addition to being wise, the Preacher also taught the people knowledge; and he pondered, searched out, and arranged many proverbs. 10The Preacher sought to find delightful words and to write words of truth correctly.
11智慧人的言语好像刺棍；会中之师的言语又像钉稳的钉子，都是一个牧者所赐的。12我儿，还有一层，你当受劝戒：著书多，没有穷尽；读书多，身体疲倦。
11The words of the wise are like goads, and masters of these collections are like driven nails; they are given by one Shepherd. 12But beyond this, my son, be warned: the writing of many books is endless, and excessive study is wearying to the body.
13这些事都已听见了，总意就是：敬畏神，谨守他的诫命，这是人所当尽的本分或译：这是众人的本分。14因为人所做的事，连一切隐藏的事，无论是善是恶，神都必审问。
13The conclusion, when everything has been heard, is: fear God and keep His commandments, because this applies to every person. 14For God will bring every act to judgment, everything which is hidden, whether it is good or evil.
