There is a Season for Everything

 There is a season for everything,

A time for every occupation under heaven.

A time for giving birth, A time for dying,

A time for planting,

A time for uprooting what has been planted.

A time for killing, A time for healing;

A time for knocking down, A time for building.

A time for tears, A time for laughter;

A time for mourning, A time for dancing.

A time for throwing stones away,

A time for gathering them up;

A time for embracing,

A time to refrain from embracing.

A time for searching, A time for losing;

A time for keeping, A time for throwing away.

A time for tearing, A time for sewing;

 A time for keeping silent, A time for speaking;

A time for loving, A time for hating;

A time for war, A time for peace.
