Ecclesiastes 3:3-10 Amplified Bible (AMP)

3. A time to kill and a time to heal, a time to break 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 cast away stones and a time to gather stones together, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,

6. A time to get and a time to lose, a time to keep and a time to cast away,

7. A time to rend and a time to sew, a time to keep silence and a time to speak, [Amos 5:13.]

8. A time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace. [Luke 14:26.]

9. What profit remains for the worker from his toil?

10. I have seen the painful labor and exertion and miserable business which God has given to the sons of men with which to exercise and busy themselves.
