To every thing there is a seasonH2165, and a timeH6256 to every purposeH2656 under the heavenH8064:
A timeH6256 to be bornH3205, and a timeH6256 to dieH4191; a timeH6256 to plantH5193, and a timeH6256 to pluck upH6131 that which is plantedH5193; {to be…: Heb. to bear}
A timeH6256 to killH2026, and a timeH6256 to healH7495; a timeH6256 to break downH6555, and a timeH6256 to build upH1129;
A timeH6256 to weepH1058, and a timeH6256 to laughH7832; a timeH6256 to mournH5594, and a timeH6256 to danceH7540;
A timeH6256 to cast awayH7993 stonesH68, and a timeH6256 to gatherH3664 stonesH68 togetherH3664; a timeH6256 to embraceH2263, and a timeH6256 to refrainH7368 from embracingH2263; {to refrain from: Heb. to be far from}
A timeH6256 to getH1245, and a timeH6256 to loseH6; a timeH6256 to keepH8104, and a timeH6256 to cast awayH7993; {get: or, seek}
A timeH6256 to rendH7167, and a timeH6256 to sewH8609; a timeH6256 to keep silenceH2814, and a timeH6256 to speakH1696;
A timeH6256 to loveH157, and a timeH6256 to hateH8130; a timeH6256 of warH4421, and a timeH6256 of peaceH7965.
What profitH3504 hath he that workethH6213 in that whereinH834 he labourethH6001?
I have seenH7200 the travailH6045, which GodH430 hath givenH5414 to the sonsH1121 of menH120 to be exercisedH6031 in it.
He hath madeH6213 every thing beautifulH3303 in his timeH6256: also he hath setH5414 the worldH5769 in their heartH3820, so thatH1097 no manH120 can find outH4672 the workH4639 that GodH430 makethH6213 from the beginningH7218 to the endH5490.
I knowH3045 that there is no goodH2896 in them, but for a man to rejoiceH8055, and to doH6213 goodH2896 in his lifeH2416.
And also that every manH120 should eatH398 and drinkH8354, and enjoyH7200 the goodH2896 of all his labourH5999, it is the giftH4991 of GodH430.
I knowH3045 that, whatsoever GodH430 doethH6213, it shall be for everH5769: nothingH369 can be putH3254 to it, nor any thing takenH1639 from it: and GodH430 doethH6213 it, that men should fearH3372 beforeH6440 him.
That which hath been is nowH3528; and that which is to be hath alreadyH3528 been; and GodH430 requirethH1245 that which is pastH7291. {that which is past: Heb. that which is driven away}
And moreover I sawH7200 under the sunH8121 the placeH4725 of judgmentH4941, that wickednessH7562 was there; and the placeH4725 of righteousnessH6664, that iniquityH7562 was there.
I saidH559 in mine heartH3820, GodH430 shall judgeH8199 the righteousH6662 and the wickedH7563: for there is a timeH6256 there for every purposeH2656 and for every workH4639.
I saidH559 in mine heartH3820 concerning the estateH1700 of the sonsH1121 of menH120, that GodH430 might manifestH1305 them, and that they might seeH7200 that theyH1992 themselves are beastsH929. {that God…: or, that they might clear God, and see, etc}
For that which befallethH4745 the sonsH1121 of menH120 befallethH4745 beastsH929; even one thingH259 befallethH4745 them: as the one diethH4194, so diethH4194 the otherH2088; yea, they have all oneH259 breathH7307; so that a manH120 hath no preeminenceH4195 above a beastH929: for all is vanityH1892.
All goH1980 unto oneH259 placeH4725; all are of the dustH6083, and all turnH7725 to dustH6083 againH7725.
Who knowethH3045 the spiritH7307 of manH1121+H120 that goethH5927 upwardH4605, and the spiritH7307 of the beastH929 that goethH3381 downwardH4295 to the earthH776? {of man: Heb. of the sons of man} {goeth upward: Heb. is ascending, etc}
Wherefore I perceiveH7200 that there is nothing betterH2896, than that a manH120 should rejoiceH8055 in his own worksH4639; for that is his portionH2506: for who shall bringH935 him to seeH7200 what shall be afterH310 him?

And I gaveH5414 my heartH3820 to seekH1875 and search outH8446 by wisdomH2451 concerning all things that are doneH6213 under heavenH8064: this soreH7451 travailH6045 hath GodH430 givenH5414 to the sonsH1121 of manH120 to be exercisedH6031 therewith. {to be…: or, to afflict them}
In the dayH3117 of prosperityH2896 be joyfulH2896, but in the dayH3117 of adversityH7451 considerH7200: GodH430 also hath setH6213 the one over againstH5980 the other, to the endH1700 that manH120 should findH4672 nothingH3972 afterH310 him. {set: Heb. made}
I soughtH8446 in mine heartH3820 to giveH4900 myselfH1320 unto wineH3196, yet acquaintingH5090 mine heartH3820 with wisdomH2451; and to lay holdH270 on follyH5531, till I might seeH7200 what was that goodH2896 for the sonsH1121 of menH120, which they should doH6213 under the heavenH8064 allH4557 the daysH3117 of their lifeH2416. {to give…: Heb. to draw my flesh with wine} {all…: Heb. the number of the days of their life}
Whoso keepethH8104 the commandmentH4687 shall feelH3045 no evilH7451 thingH1697: and a wise man'sH2450 heartH3820 discernethH3045 both timeH6256 and judgmentH4941. {shall…: Heb. shall know}
Therefore I hatedH8130 lifeH2416; because the workH4639 that is wroughtH6213 under the sunH8121 is grievousH7451 unto me: for all is vanityH1892 and vexationH7469 of spiritH7307.
Because to every purposeH2656 there isH3426 timeH6256 and judgmentH4941, therefore the miseryH7451 of manH120 is greatH7227 upon him.
And he saidH559 unto him, WentH1980 not mine heartH3820 with thee, when the manH376 turnedH2015 again from his chariotH4818 to meetH7125 thee? Is it a timeH6256 to receiveH3947 moneyH3701, and to receiveH3947 garmentsH899, and oliveyardsH2132, and vineyardsH3754, and sheepH6629, and oxenH1241, and menservantsH5650, and maidservantsH8198?
