Ecclesiastes 11:9-10
New International Reader's Version

9 You young people, be happy while you are still young.
    Let your heart be joyful while you are still strong.
Do what your heart tells you to do.
    Go after what your eyes look at.
But I want you to know
    that God will judge you for everything you do.
10 So drive worry out of your heart.
    Get rid of all your troubles.
    Being young and strong doesn’t have any meaning.

Ecclesiastes 11:9-10
New International Version

9 You who are young, be happy while you are young,
    and let your heart give you joy in the days of your youth.
Follow the ways of your heart
    and whatever your eyes see,
but know that for all these things
    God will bring you into judgment.(A)
10 So then, banish anxiety(B) from your heart
    and cast off the troubles of your body,
    for youth and vigor are meaningless.(C)
