A Time for Everything Ecclesiastes 3
3 There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every matter under heaven
2 A time to give birth and a time to die; A time to plant and a time to uproot what is planted.3 A time to kill and a time to heal; A time to tear down and a time to build up.4 A time to weep and a time to laugh; A time to mourn and a time to dance.5 A time to throw stones and a time to gather stones; A time to embrace and a time to shun embracing.6 A time to search and a time to give up as lost; A time to keep and a time to throw away.7 A time to tear apart and a time to sew together; 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.
9 What benefit is there for the worker from that in which he labours? 10 I have seen the task which God has given the sons of mankind with which to [a]occupy themselves.
