The New Version

The New Version
And let thy heart cheer thee in the days Of
thy manhood:
Walk in the ways of thy heart.
And IN the sight OF thine eyes.
Danish moroseness from thy heart,
: But keep away evil from thy flesh,
For childhood and manhood are heeting.
Remember thy wife in the days OF thy
vigor.
Ere there come the days of evil.
And the years draw nigh
In which thou wilt say have pleasure.
Ere is darkened the sun, and the light OF
day.
And the moon, and the stars,
And the clouds return after the rain:
When the keepers of the house tremble,
And the men Of power bend themselves;
The grinding maids cease
And the ladies that look out through the
Iatt.ces are darkened:
The doors are shut toward the street,
He riseth at the voice OF the birds,
And all the daughters of song are brought
low.
He is afraid of that which is high.
And fears are in the way:
The almond tree blossometh,
The locust craw.eth along with difficulty,
The caper-berry breaketh up.
The silver cord is snapped asunder,
The golden bowl crushed in.
The bucket ct the well shivered,
And the wheel breaketh down at the pit.
Man is going TO his eternal house,
And the moGrners go about in the street.
All is vanity. and all that is coming II
vanity.

altogether a different significance from that
"happy." In the First Psalm when 1t said.
Blessed Is The man that walketh not in
the way of the ungodly." IL meant simply
