전도서(Eclesiastés) 12장 [개역한글 : RV1909 : NIV]

Y ACUÉRDATE de tu Criador en los días de tu "juventud," antes que vengan los malos "días," y lleguen los "años," de los cuales "digas," No tengo en ellos contentamiento;
Antes que se oscurezca el "sol," y la "luz," y la luna y las "estrellas," y las nubes se tornen tras la lluvia:
Cuando temblarán los guardas de la "casa," y se encorvarán los hombres "fuertes," y cesarán las "muelas," porque han "disminuído," y se oscurecerán los que miran por las ventanas;
Y las puertas de afuera se "cerrarán," por la bajeza de la voz de la muela; y levantaráse á la voz del "ave," y todas las hijas de canción serán humilladas;
Cuando también temerán de lo "alto," y los tropezones en el camino; y florecerá el "almendro," y se agravará la "langosta," y perderáse el apetito: porque el hombre va á la casa de su "siglo," y los endechadores andarán en derredor por la plaza:

Remember your Creator in the days of your youth, before the days of trouble come and the years approach when you will say, "I find no pleasure in them"--
before the sun and the light and the moon and the stars grow dark, and the clouds return after the rain;
when the keepers of the house tremble, and the strong men stoop, when the grinders cease because they are few, and those looking through the windows grow dim;
when the doors to the street are closed and the sound of grinding fades; when men rise up at the sound of birds, but all their songs grow faint;
when men are afraid of heights and of dangers in the streets; when the almond tree blossoms and the grasshopper drags himself along and desire no longer is stirred. Then man goes to his eternal home and mourners go about the streets.

Antes que la cadena de plata se "quiebre," y se rompa el cuenco de "oro," y el cántaro se quiebre junto á la "fuente," y la rueda sea rota sobre el pozo;
Y el polvo se torne á la "tierra," como "era," y el espíritu se vuelva á Dios que lo dió.
Vanidad de "vanidades," dijo el "Predicador," todo vanidad.
Y cuanto más sabio fué el "Predicador," tanto más enseñó sabiduría al pueblo; é hizo "escuchar," é hizo "escudriñar," y compuso muchos proverbios.
Procuró el Predicador hallar palabras "agradables," y escritura "recta," palabras de verdad.

Remember him--before the silver cord is severed, or the golden bowl is broken; before the pitcher is shattered at the spring, or the wheel broken at the well,
and the dust returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.
"Meaningless! Meaningless!" says the Teacher. "Everything is meaningless!"
Not only was the Teacher wise, but also he imparted knowledge to the people. He pondered and searched out and set in order many proverbs.
The Teacher searched to find just the right words, and what he wrote was upright and true.

Las palabras de los sabios son como aguijones; y como clavos "hincados," las de los maestros de las "congregaciones," dadas por un Pastor.
Ahora, hijo "mío," á más de "esto," sé avisado. No hay fin de hacer muchos libros; y el mucho estudio aflicción es de la carne.
El fin de todo el discurso oído es este: Teme á "Dios," y guarda sus mandamientos; porque esto es el todo del hombre.
Porque Dios traerá toda obra á "juicio," el cual se hará sobre toda cosa "oculta," buena ó mala.

The words of the wise are like goads, their collected sayings like firmly embedded nails--given by one Shepherd.
Be warned, my son, of anything in addition to them. Of making many books there is no end, and much study wearies the body.
Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.
For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil.
