There is a time for all things,
And a season for every undertaking under heaven:

A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up plants;

A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up;

A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;

A time to cast stones, and a time to gather up stones;
A time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

A time to get, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;

A time to rend, and a time to sew;
A time to be silent, and a time to speak;

A time to love, and a time to hate;
A time for war, and a time for peace:
