传道书 3:1-15
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
万事均有定时劳碌无益
3 凡事都有定期，天下万务都有定时。 2 生有时，死有时。栽种有时，拔出所栽种的也有时。 3 杀戮有时，医治有时。拆毁有时，建造有时。 4 哭有时，笑有时。哀恸有时，跳舞有时。 5 抛掷石头有时，堆聚石头有时。怀抱有时，不怀抱有时。 6 寻找有时，失落有时。保守有时，舍弃有时。 7 撕裂有时，缝补有时。静默有时，言语有时。 8 喜爱有时，恨恶有时。争战有时，和好有时。 9 这样看来，做事的人在他的劳碌上有什么益处呢？ 10 我见神叫世人劳苦，使他们在其中受经练。 11 神造万物，各按其时成为美好，又将永生[a]安置在世人心里，然而神从始至终的作为，人不能参透。 12 我知道，世人莫强如终身喜乐、行善。 13 并且人人吃喝，在他一切劳碌中享福，这也是神的恩赐。 14 我知道，神一切所做的都必永存，无所增添，无所减少，神这样行，是要人在他面前存敬畏的心。 15 现今的事早先就有了，将来的事早已也有了，并且神使已过的事重新再来[b]。

Ecclesiastes 3:1-15
King James Version
3 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
9 What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth?
10 I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.
11 He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
12 I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life.
13 And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.
14 I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.
15 That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.

A Time for Everything
3 There is a time(A) for everything,
and a season for every activity under the heavens:
2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,(B)
3 a time to kill(C) and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
6 a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent(D) and a time to speak,
8 a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
9 What do workers gain from their toil?(E) 10 I have seen the burden God has laid on the human race.(F) 11 He has made everything beautiful in its time.(G) He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet[a] no one can fathom(H) what God has done from beginning to end.(I) 12 I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. 13 That each of them may eat and drink,(J) and find satisfaction(K) in all their toil—this is the gift of God.(L) 14 I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that people will fear him.(M)
