ગુજરાતીસભાશિક્ષક ૧૨:૫
તે સમયે તેઓ ઊંચાણથી બીશે, બીક લાગશે. તેઓને રસ્તા પર ચાલતાં ડર લાગશે, બદામના ઝાડ પર ફૂલો ખીલશે, તીડ બોજારૂપ થઈ પડશે, અને ઇચ્છાઓ મરી પરવારશે. કેમ કે માણસ પોતાના અનંતકાલિક ઘરે જાય છે. અને વિલાપ કરનારાઓ શેરીઓમાં ફરે છે.
हिन्दीसभोपदेशक १२:५
फिर जो ऊँचा हो उससे भय खाया जाएगा, और मार्ग में डरावनी वस्तुएँ मानी जाएँगी; और बादाम का पेड़ फूलेगा, और टिड्डी भी भारी लगेगी, और भूख बढ़ानेवाला फल फिर काम न देगा; क्योंकि मनुष्य अपने सदा के घर को जाएगा, और रोने पीटनेवाले सड़क-सड़क फिरेंगे।

In context

3in the day when the keepers of the house shall tremble, and the strong men shall bow themselves, and the grinders cease because they are few, and those who look out of the windows are darkened,

4and the doors shall be shut in the street; when the sound of the grinding is low, and one shall rise up at the voice of a bird, and all the daughters of music shall be brought low;

5yes, they shall be afraid of heights, and terrors will be on 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;

6before the silver cord is severed, or the golden bowl is broken, or the pitcher is broken at the spring, or the wheel broken at the cistern,

7and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.
