1 Let your mind be turned to your Maker in the days of your strength, while the evil days come not, and the years are far away when you will say, I have no pleasure in them;

And remember creator your in [the] days of youth your until that not they will come [the] days of evil and they will arrive years which you will say not [belongs] to me in them pleasure.

2 While the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, are not dark, and the clouds come not back after the rain;

Until that not it will become dark the sun and the light and the moon and the stars and they will return the clouds after the rain.

3 In the day when the keepers of the house are shaking for fear, and the strong men are bent down, and the women who were crushing the grain are at rest because their number is small, and those looking out of the windows are unable to see;

In the day when they will tremble [the] keepers of the house and they will bend themselves [the] people of strength and they will cease the [female] grinders for they have become few and they will grow dim the [women who] look in the windows.

4 When the doors are shut in the street, and the sound of the crushing is low, and the voice of the bird is soft, and the daughters of music will be made low;

And they will be shut up [the] doors on the street when becomes low [the] sound of the grinding mill for someone may arise to [the] sound of bird and they may be reduced all [the] daughters of song.

5 And he is in fear of that which is high, and danger is in the road, and the tree is white with flower, and the least thing is a weight, and desire is at an end, because man goes to his last resting-place, and those who are sorrowing are in the streets;

Also from a high [place] people will be afraid and terrors [are] in the way and it may blossom the almond tree so it may drag itself along the grasshopper and it may fail the caper-berry for [is] going humankind to [the] house of perpetuity its and they will go about (in the street *L(abh)*) the mourners.

6 Before ever the silver cord is cut, or the vessel of gold is broken, or the pot is broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the water-hole;

Until that not (it will be snapped *Q(K)*) [the] cord of silver so it may be crushed [the] bowl of gold so it may be broken [the] jar at the water spring and it will be crushed the [water] wheel to the well.

7 And the dust goes back to the earth as it was, and the spirit goes back to God who gave it.

And it will return the dust to the earth like which it was and the spirit it will return to God who he gave it.

8 All things are to no purpose, says the Preacher, all is to no purpose.

Futility of futilities he said the Teacher everything [is] futility.

9 And because the Preacher was wise he still gave the people knowledge; searching out, testing, and putting in order a great number of wise sayings.

And besides that he was Teacher wise again he taught knowledge the people and he weighed and he searched out he arranged in order proverbs [surely] a multitude.

10 The Preacher made search for words which were pleasing, but his writing was in words upright and true.

sought Teacher to find words of delight and [what] was written uprightness [was] words of truth.

11 The words of the wise are pointed, and sayings grouped together are like nails fixed with a hammer; they are given by one guide.

[the] words of Wise [people] [are] like goads and [are] like nails firmly fixed masters of collections they are given from a shepherd one.

12 And further, my son, take note of this: of the making of books there is no end, and much learning is a weariness to the flesh.

And excess more than them O child my be warned to make books many there not [is] an end and study much [is] weariness of flesh.

13 This is the last word. All has been said. Have fear of God and keep his laws; because this is right for every man.

[the] end of [the] matter Everything it has been heard God fear and commandments his keep for this [is] all humankind.

14 God will be judge of every work, with every secret thing, good or evil.

For every deed God he will bring in judgment with every hidden thing whether good and or evil.
