UKJV - Ecclesiastes - 3

3:1  To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

3:2  A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

3:3  A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

3:4  A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

3:5  A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

3:6  A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

3:7  A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

3:8  A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

3:9  What profit has he that works in that wherein he labours?

3:10  I have seen the travail, which God has given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.

3:11  He has made every thing beautiful in his time: also he has set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God makes from the beginning to the end.

3:12  I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life.

3:13  And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.

3:14  I know that, whatsoever God does, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God does it, that men should fear before him.

3:15  That which has been is now; and that which is to be has already been; and God requires that which is past.

3:16  And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that wickedness was there; and the place of righteousness, that iniquity was there.

3:17  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.

3:18  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.

3:19  For that which befalls the sons of men befalls beasts; even one thing befalls them: as the one dies, so dies the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man has no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity.

3:20  All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.

3:21  Who knows the spirit of man that goes upward, and the spirit of the beast that goes downward to the earth?

3:22  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?
