Ecclesiastes 3:8-14

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.

¹²I know that there is no good in them, except for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life.

¹³Also in the case of every man who shall eat and drink, and see good in all his labour, this is a gift of God.

¹⁴I know that whatsoever things God has done, they shall be for ever: it is impossible to add to it, and it is impossible to take away from it: and God has done it, that men may fear before him.
