Ecclesiastes 3:3-11

³A time to slay, And a time to heal, A time to break down, And a time to build up.

⁴A time to weep, And a time to laugh. A time to mourn, And a time to skip.

⁵A time to cast away stones, And a time to heap up stones. A time to embrace, And a time to be far from embracing.

⁶A time to seek, And a time to destroy. 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 hath the doer in that which he is labouring at?

¹⁰I have seen the travail that God hath given to the sons of man to be humbled by it.

¹¹The whole He hath made beautiful in its season; also, that knowledge He hath put in their heart without which man findeth not out the work that God hath done from the beginning even unto the end.
