Ecclesiastes 12:5


Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

when men fear the heights and dangers of the road, when the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper loses its spring, and the caper berry shrivels—for then man goes to his eternal home and mourners walk the streets.


World English Bible (WEB)

yes, they shall be afraid of heights, and terrors will be in the way; and the almond tree shall blossom, and the grasshopper shall be a burden, and desire shall fail; because man goes to his everlasting home, and the mourners go about the streets:


Strong's King James

Also when they shall be afraid{H3372}{(H8799)} of that which is high{H1364}, and fears{H2849} shall be in the way{H1870}, and the almond tree{H8247} shall flourish{H5006}{(H8686)}, and the grasshopper{H2284} shall be a burden{H5445}{(H8691)}, and desire{H35} shall fail{H6565}{(H8686)}: because man{H120} goeth{H1980}{(H8802)} to his long{H5769} home{H1004}, and the mourners{H5594}{(H8802)} go about{H5437}{(H8804)} the streets{H7784}:

Young's Literal Translation

Also of that which is high they are afraid, And of the low places in the way, And the almond-tree is despised, And the grasshopper is become a burden, And want is increased, For man is going unto his home age-during, And the mourners have gone round through the street.
