12:1 [hgb]  你 趁 着 年 幼 ， 衰 败 的 日 子 尚 未 来 到 ， 就 是 你 所 说 ， 我 毫 无 喜 乐 的 那 些 年 日 未 曾 临 近 之 先 ， 当 记 念 造 你 的 主 。 
    [kjv]  Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them;
    [bbe]  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;
12:2 [hgb]  不 要 等 到 日 头 ， 光 明 ， 月 亮 ， 星 宿 ， 变 为 黑 暗 ， 雨 后 云 彩 反 回 ， 
    [kjv]  While the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, be not darkened, nor the clouds return after the rain:
    [bbe]  While the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, are not dark, and the clouds come not back after the rain;
12:3 [hgb]  看 守 房 屋 的 发 颤 ， 有 力 的 屈 身 ， 推 磨 的 稀 少 就 止 息 ， 从 窗 户 往 外 看 的 都 昏 暗 ， 
    [kjv]  In the day when the keepers of the house shall tremble, and the strong men shall bow themselves, and the grinders cease because they are few, and those that look out of the windows be darkened,
    [bbe]  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;
12:4 [hgb]  街 门 关 闭 ， 推 磨 的 响 声 微 小 ， 雀 鸟 一 叫 ， 人 就 起 来 ， 歌 唱 的 女 子 ， 也 都 衰 微 ， 
    [kjv]  And the doors shall be shut in the streets, when the sound of the grinding is low, and he shall rise up at the voice of the bird, and all the daughters of musick shall be brought low;
    [bbe]  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;
12:5 [hgb]  人 怕 高 处 ， 路 上 有 惊 慌 ， 杏 树 开 花 ， 蚱 蜢 成 为 重 担 ， 人 所 愿 的 也 都 废 掉 ， 因 为 人 归 他 永 远 的 家 ， 吊 丧 的 在 街 上 往 来 ， 
    [kjv]  Also when they shall be afraid of that which is high, and fears shall be in the way, and the almond tree shall flourish, and the grasshopper shall be a burden, and desire shall fail: because man goeth to his long home, and the mourners go about the streets:
