To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven
凡事都有定期，天下万务都有定时。
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up
that which is planted
生有时，死有时。栽种有时，拔出所栽种的也有时。
A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build
up
杀戮有时，医治有时。拆毁有时，建造有时。
A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance
哭有时，笑有时。哀恸有时，跳舞有时。
A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to
embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing
抛掷石头有时，堆聚石头有时。怀抱有时，不怀抱有时。
A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away
寻找有时，失落有时。保守有时，舍弃有时。
A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak
撕裂有时，缝补有时。静默有时，言语有时。
A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace
喜爱有时，恨恶有时。争战有时，和好有时。
Ecclesiastes 传道书 3:1-8
