11. My child, treat yourself as well as you can, and bring worthy offerings to the Lord.
12. Remember that death is coming for you some day, and you haven't been told when that will be.
13. Before that day comes, be kind to your friends; be as generous as you can.
14. Don't deny yourself a single day's happiness. If there is something you want to do and it is lawful, go ahead!
15. Some day all that you have worked for will be divided up and given to others.
16. So be generous; but also be willing to receive from others. Enjoy yourself, for you will not find any pleasures in the world of the dead.
17. The human body wears out like a piece of clothing. The ancient law decrees that we must die.
18. Human beings are like leaves on a spreading tree. New growth takes the place of the fallen leaves; while some of us die, others are being born.
