| 3:1 |
 o euery thing there is a season, and a time to euery purpose vnder the heauen. |
|
| 3:2 |
A time to be borne, and a time to die: a time to plant, and a time to pluck vp that which is planted. |
 |
| 3:3 |
A time to kill, and a time to heale: a time to breake downe, and a time to build vp. |
|
| 3:4 |
A time to weepe, and a time to laugh: a time to mourne, and a time to dance. |
|
| 3:5 |
A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together: a time to imbrace, and a time to refraine from imbracing. |
|
| 3:6 |
A time to get, and a time to lose: a time to keepe, and a time to cast away. |
|
| 3:7 |
A time to rent, and a time to sow: a time to keepe silence, and a time to speake. |
|
| 3:8 |

|
| 3:9 |
What profite hath hee that worketh, in that wherein he laboureth? |
|
| 3:10 |
I haue seene the trauaile which God hath giuen to the sonnes of men, to be exercised in it. |
|
| 3:11 |
He hath made euery thing beautifull in his time: also hee hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can finde out the worke that God maketh from the beginning to the end. |
|
| 3:12 |
I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to reioyce, and to doe good in his life. |
|
| 3:13 |
And also that euery man should eate and drinke, and enioy the good of all his labour: it is the gift of God. |
|
| 3:14 |
I know that whatsoeuer God doeth, it shalbe for euer: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doth it, that men should feare before him. |
|
| 3:15 |
That which hath beene, is now: and that which is to be, hath alreadie beene, and God requireth that which is past. |
|
| 3:16 |
And moreouer, I sawe vnder the Sunne the place of iudgement, that wickednesse was there; and the place of righteousnesse, that iniquitie was there. |
|

I said in mine heart, God shall iudge the righteous and the wicked: for there is a time there, for euery purpose and for euery worke. |
|
| 3:18 |
I said in my heart concerning the estate of the sonnes of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselues are beasts. |
|
| 3:19 |
For that which befalleth the sonnes of men, befalleth beastes, euen one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea they haue all one breath, so that a man hath no preheminence aboue a beast; for all is vanitie. |
|
| 3:20 |
All goe vnto one place, all are of the dust, and all turne to dust againe. |
|

Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth vpward; and the spirit of the beast that goeth downeward to the earth? |
|
| 3:22 |
Wherefore I perceiue that there is nothing better, then that a man should reioyce in his owne workes: for that is his portion; for who shall bring him to see what shalbe after him? |
