Targum zu Kohelet 11:8
כִּ֣י אִם־שָׁנִ֥ים הַרְבֵּ֛ה יִחְיֶ֥ה הָאָדָ֖ם בְּכֻלָּ֣ם יִשְׂמָ֑ח וְיִזְכֹּר֙ אֶת־יְמֵ֣י הַחֹ֔שֶׁךְ כִּֽי־הַרְבֵּ֥ה יִהְי֖וּ כָּל־שֶׁבָּ֥א הָֽבֶל׃
Wenn der Mensch viele Jahre lebt, so freue er sich ihrer aller und denke der Tage der Finsternis [des Todes], dass ihrer viel sein werden; alles, was noch kommt, ist eitel.
Aramaic Targum to Ecclesiastes
8. For if a man lives many days in all of them he should rejoice and occupy himself with the Torah of 'ה. And let him remember the dark days of death and not sin. For many are the days which the deceased lies in the grave and it is appropriate for him to get judgment from Heaven for his life which he loved. All the time punishment will come on him for vanities he has done.
