Ecclesiastes 12:3-7

Rotherham(i) 3 In the day when the keepers of the house shall tremble, and the men of might bow themselves,––and the grinders cease because they are few, and they who look through the windows are darkened; 4 And the doors in the street be closed, when the sound of the mill become low,––and one rise at the chirp of a small bird, and low–voiced be all the daughters of song; 5 Yea, at what is high, they be in fear, and there be, terrors, in the way, and the almond be rejected, and the grasshopper drag itself along, and desire perish,––for man is going to his age–abiding home, when the wailers shall go round in the streets; 6 Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken,––or the bucket by the fountain be shivered, or the wheel at the well be broken; 7 And the dust return to the earth, as it was,––and, the spirit, return unto God, who gave it.
