Ecclesiastes 12:8 DBY

⁶  -- before the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be shattered at the fountain, or the wheel be broken at the cistern;

⁷  and the dust return to the earth as it was, and the spirit return unto God who gave it.

⁸  Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher: all is vanity.

⁹  And moreover, because the Preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; and he pondered, and sought out, [and] set in order many proverbs.

¹⁰  The Preacher sought to find out acceptable words; and that which was written is upright, words of truth.
