21_ECC_03_01 to every [ thing there Is] A season, And A time to every purpose under the heaven:
21_ECC_03_02 A time to be born, And A time to die; A time to plant, And A time to pluck up [ that which Is] planted;
21_ECC_03_03 A time to kill, And A time to heal; A time to break down, And A time to build up;
21_ECC_03_04 A time to weep, And A time to laugh; A time to mourn, And A time to dance;
21_ECC_03_05 A time to cast away stones, And A time to gather stones together; A time to embrace, And A time to refrain from embracing;
21_ECC_03_06 A time to get, And A time to lose; A time to keep, And A time to cast away;
21_ECC_03_07 A time to rend, And A time to sew; A time to keep silence, And A time to speak;
21_ECC_03_08 A time to love, And A time to hate; A time of war, And A time of peace.
21_ECC_03_09 what profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth?
21_ECC_03_10 I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.
21_ECC_03_11 he hath made every [ thing] beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, So that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
21_ECC_03_12 I know that [ there Is] no good in them, but for [A man] to Rejoice, And to do good in his life.
21_ECC_03_13 And also that every man should eat And drink, And enjoy the good of all his labour, it [ Is] the gift of God.
21_ECC_03_14 I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: And God doeth [ it], that [ men] should Fear before him.
21_ECC_03_15 that which hath been Is now; And that which Is to be hath already been; And God requireth that which Is past.
21_ECC_03_16 And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, [ that] wickedness [ was] there; And the place of righteousness, [ that] iniquity [ was] there.
21_ECC_03_17 I said in mine heart, God shall judge the righteous And the wicked: for [ there Is] A time there for every purpose And for every work.
21_ECC_03_18 I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, And that they might see that they themselves are beasts.
21_ECC_03_19 for that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, So dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; So that A man hath no preeminence above A beast: for all [ Is] vanity.
21_ECC_03_20 all go unto one place; all are of the dust, And all turn to dust again.
21_ECC_03_21 who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, And the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?
21_ECC_03_22 Wherefore I perceive that [ there Is] nothing Better, than that A man should Rejoice in his own works; for that [ Is] his portion: for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?
