Ecclesiastes 11:7-10 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

7. It is good to be aliveto enjoy the light of day.

8. A person ought to enjoy every day of his life.This is true no matter how long he lives.But he should also remember this:You will be dead much longer than you live.After you are dead, you accomplish nothing.

9. Young people, enjoy yourselves while you are young.Be happy while you are young.Do whatever your heart desires.Do whatever you want to do.But remember that God will judge youfor everything you do.

10. So avoid sorrow and sadness.Forget about all the bad things that happen to you.This is because the joys of youth pass quickly away.
