3:1 For
everything
there
is
a
season,
and
a
time
for
every
matter
under
heaven:
3:2 a
time
to
be
born,
and
a
time
to
die;
a
time
to
plant,
and
a
time
to
pluck
up
what
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
seek,
and
a
time
to
lose;
a
time
to
keep,
and
a
time
to
cast
away;
3:7 a
time
to
tear,
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
for
war,
and
a
time
for
peace.
3:9 What
gain
has
the
worker
from
his
toil
3:10 I
have
seen
the
business
that
God
has
given
to
the
children
of
man
to
be
busy
with.
3:11 He
has
made
everything
beautiful
in
its
time.
Also,
he
has
put
eternity
into
man's
heart,
yet
so
that
he
cannot
find
out
what
God
has
done
from
the
beginning
to
the
end.
3:12 I
perceived
that
there
is
nothing
better
for
them
than
to
be
joyful
and
to
do
good
as
long
as
they
live;
3:13 also
that
everyone
should
eat
and
drink
and
take
pleasure
in
all
his
toil--this
is
God's
gift
to
man.
3:14 I
perceived
that
whatever
God
does
endures
forever;
nothing
can
be
added
to
it,
nor
anything
taken
from
it.
God
has
done
it,
so
that
people
fear
before
him.
3:15 That
which
is,
already
has
been;
that
which
is
to
be,
already
has
been;
and
God
seeks
what
has
been
driven
away.
3:16 Moreover,
I
saw
under
the
sun
that
in
the
place
of
justice,
even
there
was
wickedness,
and
in
the
place
of
righteousness,
even
there
was
wickedness.
3:17 I
said
in
my
heart,
God
will
judge
the
righteous
and
the
wicked,
for
there
is
a
time
for
every
matter
and
for
every
work.
3:18 I
said
in
my
heart
with
regard
to
the
children
of
man
that
God
is
testing
them
that
they
may
see
that
they
themselves
are
but
beasts.
3:19 For
what
happens
to
the
children
of
man
and
what
happens
to
the
beasts
is
the
same;
as
one
dies,
so
dies
the
other.
They
all
have
the
same
breath,
and
man
has
no
advantage
over
the
beasts,
for
all
is
vanity.
3:20 All
go
to
one
place.
All
are
from
the
dust,
and
to
dust
all
return.
3:21 Who
knows
whether
the
spirit
of
man
goes
upward
and
the
spirit
of
the
beast
goes
down
into
the
earth
3:22 So
I
saw
that
there
is
nothing
better
than
that
a
man
should
rejoice
in
his
work,
for
that
is
his
lot.
Who
can
bring
him
to
see
what
will
be
after
him
