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?

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?
Go thy wayH3212, eatH398 thy breadH3899 with joyH8057, and drinkH8354 thy wineH3196 with a merryH2896 heartH3820; for GodH430 nowH3528 acceptethH7521 thy worksH4639.
Let thy garmentsH899 be alwaysH6256 whiteH3836; and let thy headH7218 lackH2637 no ointmentH8081.
LiveH2416 joyfullyH7200 with the wifeH802 whom thou lovestH157 all the daysH3117 of the lifeH2416 of thy vanityH1892, which he hath givenH5414 thee under the sunH8121, all the daysH3117 of thy vanityH1892: for that is thy portionH2506 in this lifeH2416, and in thy labourH5999 which thou takestH6001 under the sunH8121. {Live…: Heb. See, or, Enjoy life}
And it shall come to pass, that as the LORDH3068 rejoicedH7797 over you to do you goodH3190, and to multiplyH7235 you; so the LORDH3068 will rejoiceH7797 over you to destroyH6 you, and to bring you to noughtH8045; and ye shall be pluckedH5255 from off the landH127 whither thou goestH935 to possessH3423 it.
TrustH982 in the LORDH3068, and doH6213 goodH2896; so shalt thou dwellH7931 in the landH776, and verilyH530 thou shalt be fedH7462. {verily: Heb. in truth, or, stableness}
Thou meetestH6293 him that rejoicethH7797 and workethH6213 righteousnessH6664, those that rememberH2142 thee in thy waysH1870: behold, thou art wrothH7107; for we have sinnedH2398: in those is continuanceH5769, and we shall be savedH3467.
But ratherG4133 giveG1325 almsG1654 of such things as ye haveG1751; andG2532, beholdG2400, all thingsG3956 areG2076 cleanG2513 unto youG5213. {of…: or, as you are able}
I have shewedG5263 youG5213 all thingsG3956, how thatG3754 soG3779 labouringG2872 ye oughtG1163 to supportG482 the weakG770, andG5037 to rememberG3421 the wordsG3056 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424, howG3754 heG846 saidG2036, It isG2076 moreG3123 blessedG3107 to giveG1325 thanG2228 to receiveG2983.
RejoiceG5463 inG1722 the LordG2962 alwayG3842: and againG3825 I sayG2046, RejoiceG5463.
LetG1097 yourG5216 moderationG1933 be knownG1097 unto allG3956 menG444. The LordG2962 is at handG1451.
Be carefulG3309 for nothingG3367; butG235 inG1722 every thingG3956 by prayerG4335 andG2532 supplicationG1162 withG3326 thanksgivingG2169 letG1107 yourG5216 requestsG155 be made knownG1107 untoG4314 GodG2316.
AndG2532 the peaceG1515 of GodG2316, whichG3588 passethG5242 allG3956 understandingG3563, shall keepG5432 yourG5216 heartsG2588 andG2532 mindsG5216+G3540 throughG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
FinallyG3063, brethrenG80, whatsoever thingsG3745 areG2076 trueG227, whatsoever thingsG3745 are honestG4586, whatsoever thingsG3745 are justG1342, whatsoever thingsG3745 are pureG53, whatsoever thingsG3745 are lovelyG4375, whatsoever thingsG3745 are of good reportG2163; if there be anyG1536 virtueG703, andG2532 if there be anyG1536 praiseG1868, thinkG3049 on these thingsG5023. {honest: or, venerable}
Those thingsG5023, whichG3739 ye haveG3129 bothG2532 learnedG3129, andG2532 receivedG3880, andG2532 heardG191, andG2532 seenG1492 inG1722 meG1698, doG4238: andG2532 the GodG2316 of peaceG1515 shall beG2071 withG3326 youG5216.
