“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;”
The exhortation to remember the Creator in the days of youth, before the evil days come, introduces the book's final movement toward religious conclusion. The command to remember God before life's decline and death approach suggests that youth offers a privileged time for such remembrance. This verse positions fear of God and recognition of divine authority as the appropriate context for living.
