The Book of Ecclesiastes 3

3For everything there is a season and a time for every matter under the heavens:

2a time to give birth and a time to die,

a time to plant and a time to tear out what was planted,

3a time to kill and a time to heal,

a time to break down and a time to build,

4a time to weep and a time to laugh,

a time to mourn and a time to dance,

5a time to throw stones and a time to gather stones,

a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,

6a time to seek and a time to lose,

a time to keep and a time to throw away,

7a time to tear and a time to mend,

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 is the profit of the one who does in exchange for that which he toils? 10I saw the business that God gives to the sons of humanity to be busied with it. 11He makes everything fitting in his time. Also, he gives the sense of duration in their heart, yet humanity cannot find the work that God has done from beginning to end.

12I know that there is no good for them except to rejoice and to do good during his life 13and every person who will eat and drink and see good in all of his toil—it is a gift of God. 14I know that everything that God does, it will be enduring. To it there is nothing to add, and from it there is nothing to take, and God has acted so that they might fear from before his face.

15Whatever that is, already it was

and that which is to be, already it is.

And God will seek what is pursued.

16And again I saw under the sun at the place of judgment, there was wickedness, and at the place of righteousness, there was wickedness. 17I said, I in my heart, “The righteous and the wicked God will judge, because a time exists for every matter and on account of every deed there.” 18I said, I in my heart, “Concerning the sons of humanity, God is to test them that they might see that they are animals, they themselves.” 19Because the happening of the sons of humanity and the happening of the animal—there is one happening for them. As the death of this one, so the death of this one. And there is one spirit for them both, but an advantage of humanity over the animal, there is none, for everything is vapor. 20Both are going to one place. Both are from the dust, and both return to the dust. 21Who knows that the spirit of the sons of humanity, it is the one going up, upwards, and the spirit of the animal, it is the one going down, downwards to the earth? 22And I saw that there is nothing better than that humanity will rejoice in his works, for it is his portion. For who will bring him to look at what that will be after him?
