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;

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。

你趁着年轻、衰老的日子尚未来到，就是你所说，我毫无喜悦的那些岁月来临之前，当记念造你的主。

年轻时要记住你的创造主，不要等到衰老的岁月来临时才哀叹：“我的日子毫无乐趣。”

在你壮年的日子，当记念你的创造主。不要等到衰败的日子，就是你所说：“我毫无喜乐”的那些年日临到，

因此，在你青春的日子里，当记念创造你的主——不要等到祸患的日子来到，不要等到你说“我在其中毫无喜乐”的岁月来临；

你趁着年幼、衰敗的日子尚未來到，就是你所說，我毫無喜樂的那些年日未曾臨近之先，當記念造你的主。

在你壯年的日子，當記念你的創造主。不要等到衰敗的日子，就是你所說：“我毫無喜樂”的那些年日臨到，

你要在青年的日子想念着創造你、的主，就是在衰敗的日子還未來到，在你所說對於它毫無樂趣的那些年日還未臨近之先，

因此，在你青春的日子裡，當記念創造你的主——不要等到禍患的日子來到，不要等到你說「我在其中毫無喜樂」的歲月來臨；

時當少壯、困苦之日未臨、所謂不悅之年未至、宜念造爾之主、

年當少壯、必及時敬造化之主、宜憶勿忘、斯時也、患難憂愁之日尚未至。

爾在幼時、患難之日未來、爾所不悅之年未至、當及時記憶造爾之主、

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”—

Remember your Creator. Remember him while you are still young. Think about him before your times of trouble come. The years will come when you will say,“ I don’t find any pleasure in them.”

Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come and the years draw near of which you will say,“ I have no pleasure in them”;

Don’t let the excitement of youth cause you to forget your Creator. Honor him in your youth before you grow old and say,“ Life is not pleasant anymore.”

So remember your Creator in the days of your youth: Before the days of adversity come, and the years approach when you will say,“ I have no delight in them”;

Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come and the years approach when you will say,“ I have no pleasure in them”;

Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth, Before the difficult days come, And the years draw near when you say,“ I have no pleasure in them”:

Remember also thy Creator in the days of thy youth, before the evil days come, and the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them;

So remember your Creator in the days of your youth: Before the days of adversity come, and the years approach when you will say,“ I have no delight in them”;

So remember your Creator in the days of your youth– before the difficult days come, and the years draw near when you will say,“ I have no pleasure in them”;

Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come, and the years draw near, when you will say,“ I have no pleasure in them;”

[ It is] good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.

But if a man live many years,[ and] rejoice in them all; yet let him remember the days of darkness; for they shall be many. All that cometh[ is] vanity.

Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

But Jesus called them[ unto him], and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.

O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works.Now also when I am old and grayheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto[ this] generation,[ and] thy power to every one[ that] is to come.

Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.

Therefore remove sorrow from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh: for childhood and youth[ are] vanity.

And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.

But thou[ art] he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope[ when I was] upon my mother’s breasts.I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou[ art] my God from my mother’s belly.

And he sent, and brought him in. Now he[ was] ruddy,[ and] withal of a beautiful countenance, and goodly to look to. And the LORD said, Arise, anoint him: for this[ is] he.Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.

But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for[ the LORD seeth] not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.

The days of our years[ are] threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength[ they be] fourscore years, yet[ is] their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.

I[ am] this day fourscore years old:[ and] can I discern between good and evil? can thy servant taste what I eat or what I drink? can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? wherefore then should thy servant be yet a burden unto my lord the king?

And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.

And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground.And all Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel[ was] established[ to be] a prophet of the LORD.And the LORD appeared again in Shiloh: for the LORD revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the LORD.

But he refused, and said unto his master’s wife, Behold, my master wotteth not what[ is] with me in the house, and he hath committed all that he hath to my hand;[ There is] none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou[ art] his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?

And the child Samuel grew on, and was in favour both with the LORD, and also with men.

But Samuel ministered before the LORD,[ being] a child, girded with a linen ephod.

The keeper of the prison looked not to any thing[ that was] under his hand; because the LORD was with him, and[ that] which he did, the LORD made[ it] to prosper.

And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the passover.And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast.And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not[ of it].But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day’s journey; and they sought him among[ their] kinsfolk and acquaintance.And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him.And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions.And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father’s business?And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them.And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them: but his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.

Therefore also I have lent him to the LORD; as long as he liveth he shall be lent to the LORD. And he worshipped the LORD there.

And he did[ that which was] right in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the ways of David his father, and declined[ neither] to the right hand, nor to the left.For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young, he began to seek after the God of David his father: and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the groves, and the carved images, and the molten images.

As for these four children, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom: and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.

Yea, whereto[ might] the strength of their hands[ profit] me, in whom old age was perished?

And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the living God.David said moreover, The LORD that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and the LORD be with thee.

And all Israel shall mourn for him, and bury him: for he only of Jeroboam shall come to the grave, because in him there is found[ some] good thing toward the LORD God of Israel in the house of Jeroboam.

But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.Now God had brought Daniel into favour and tender love with the prince of the eunuchs.

And Solomon said, Thou hast shewed unto thy servant David my father great mercy, according as he walked before thee in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with thee; and thou hast kept for him this great kindness, that thou hast given him a son to sit on his throne, as[ it is] this day.And now, O LORD my God, thou hast made thy servant king instead of David my father: and I[ am but] a little child: I know not[ how] to go out or come in.And thy servant[ is] in the midst of thy people which thou hast chosen, a great people, that cannot be numbered nor counted for multitude.Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this thy so great a people?And the speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.And God said unto him, Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life; neither hast asked riches for thyself, nor hast asked the life of thine enemies; but hast asked for thyself understanding to discern judgment;Behold, I have done according to thy words: lo, I have given thee a wise and an understanding heart; so that there was none like thee before thee, neither after thee shall any arise like unto thee.

For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother’s womb.

Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O LORD, have we waited for thee; the desire of[ our] soul[ is] to thy name, and to the remembrance of thee.

And it shall come to pass,[ as soon as] I am gone from thee, that the Spirit of the LORD shall carry thee whither I know not; and[ so] when I come and tell Ahab, and he cannot find thee, he shall slay me: but I thy servant fear the LORD from my youth.

Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth[ it] not: yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, yet he knoweth not.
