Ecclesiastes 3:3-11

³a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to pull down, and a time to build up;

⁴a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to lament, and a time to dance;

⁵a time to throw stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to abstain from embracing;

⁶a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

⁷a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to be silent, and a time to speak;

⁸a time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

⁹What advantage has he that works in those things wherein he labours?

¹⁰I have seen all the trouble, which God has given to the sons of men to be troubled with.

¹¹All the things which he has made are beautiful in his time: he has also set the whole world in their heart, that man might not find out the work which God has wrought from the beginning even to the end.
