Ecclesiastes 3
A Time for Everything
1 There
is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:
2 a time
to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 a time
to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4 a time
to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5 a time
to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
6 a time
to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7 a time
to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8 a time
to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
