The Problems of Old Age

12 Remember your Creator while you are young.
Your old age is coming
    when you will have many troubles.
When that time comes,
    you won’t have much to enjoy.
When you become old,
    the light from the sun, moon and stars will seem dark to you.
    It will seem as if the rain clouds never go away.
At that time your arms will lose their strength.
    Your strong legs will become weak and bent.
Your teeth will fall out so you cannot chew.
    Your eyes will not see clearly.
