Ecclesiastes 3:4-11

⁴A time for weeping and a time for laughing; a time for sorrow and a time for dancing;

⁵A time to take stones away and a time to get stones together; a time for kissing and a time to keep from kissing;

⁶A time for search and a time for loss; a time to keep and a time to give away;

⁷A time for undoing and a time for stitching; a time for keeping quiet and a time for talk;

⁸A time for love and a time for hate; a time for war and a time for peace.

⁹What profit has the worker in the work which he does?

¹⁰I saw the work which God has put on the sons of man.

¹¹He has made everything right in its time; but he has made their hearts without knowledge, so that man is unable to see the works of God, from the first to the last.
