万物有时
3 天下万物都有定期，
凡事都有定时。
2 出生有时，死亡有时；
耕种有时，拔出有时；
3 杀戮有时，医治有时；
拆毁有时，建造有时；
4 哭泣有时，欢笑有时；
哀伤有时，雀跃有时；
5 抛石有时，堆石有时[a]；
拥抱有时，避开有时；
6 寻找有时，遗失有时；
保存有时，丢弃有时；
7 撕裂有时，缝合有时；
沉默有时，发言有时；
8 爱慕有时，憎恶有时；
争战有时，和好有时。
9 那么，人劳碌做工有什么益处呢？ 10 我察觉上帝给世人重担，使他们忙碌不休。 11 祂使万事各按其时变得美好，又把永恒的意识放在人心里，人却不能测透上帝从始至终的作为。 12 我认识到，人生在世没有什么比欢乐、享受更好。 13 人人都该吃喝、享受自己劳苦的成果，这是上帝的恩赐。 14 我知道，上帝所做的都会存到永远，谁也不能增减。祂这样安排是叫人敬畏祂。 15 现在的事并不是新事，未来的事也早已发生过。上帝使过去的事再次出现。
世间的不公
16 我又看到日光之下，即使在公道和正义之地也有邪恶。 17 我心里想：“不论义人或恶人，上帝必审判，因为万事万务都有受审之时。” 18 我又想：“至于世人，上帝试验他们，是要他们知道自己与兽类无异。 19 因为人和兽的际遇并无分别，两者都难逃一死，活着都靠一口气。人并不比兽强，一切都是虚空。 20 两者都同归一处，出于尘土，也归于尘土。 21 谁知道人的气息[b]会向上升，兽的气息会降到地下呢？” 22 因此，我觉得没有什么比人享受工作之乐更好，因为这是人当得的。人死后，谁能使他看到世间的事呢？

神規劃萬事叫人敬畏他
3 萬事都有定期，天下萬務都有定時：
2 生有時，死有時；
栽種有時，拔出所種的也有時；
3 殺戮有時，醫治有時；
拆毀有時，建造有時；
4 哭有時，笑有時；
哀慟有時，踴躍有時；
5 拋擲石頭有時，堆聚石頭有時；
擁抱有時，避免擁抱有時；
6 尋找有時，捨棄有時；
保存有時，拋棄有時；
7 撕裂有時，縫補有時；
靜默有時，講話有時；
8 愛有時，恨有時；
戰爭有時，和平有時。
9 作工的人在自己的勞碌上得到甚麼益處呢？ 10 我看 神給予世人的擔子，是要他們為此煩惱。 11 他使萬事各按其時，成為美好；他又把永恆的意識放在人的心裡；雖然這樣，人還是不能察覺 神自始至終的作為。 12 我曉得人生最好是尋樂享福， 13 人人有吃有喝，在自己的一切勞碌中自得其樂；這就是 神的恩賜。 14 我知道 神所作的一切，都必永存，無可增添，無可減少； 神這樣作，為要使人在他面前存敬畏的心。 15 現在有的，先前就有；將來有的，早已有了；因為 神使已過的事重新出現（“使已過的事重新出現”直譯是“尋找被追趕的”）。
神的審判都有定時
16 我在日光之下又看見：審判的地方有奸惡，維護公義的地方也有奸惡。 17 我自己心裡說：“ 神必審判義人和惡人，因為各樣事務、各樣工作都有定時。” 18 我自己心裡說：“至於世人， 神要試驗他們，使他們看見自己與牲畜無異。 19 因為世人所遭遇的與牲畜所遭遇的，都是一樣：這個怎樣死，那個也怎樣死，兩者的氣息都是一樣，所以人並不勝於牲畜。一切都是虛空。 20 大家都到一個地方去，都出於塵土，也都歸回塵土。 21 有誰知道人的靈是往上升，牲畜的魂（“魂”的原文與“靈”〔3:21〕和“氣息”〔3:19〕相同）是下降而入地呢？” 22 因此我看人最好是在自己所作的事上自得其樂，因為這也是他的分；誰能使他看見他自己死後的事呢？

Ecclesiastes 3
Revised Standard Version
Everything Has Its Time
3 For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:
2 a time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what 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 seek, 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 for war, and a time for peace.
The God-Given Task
9 What gain has the worker from his toil?
10 I have seen the business that God has given to the sons of men to be busy with. 11 He has made everything beautiful in its time; also he has put eternity into man’s mind, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. 12 I know that there is nothing better for them than to be happy and enjoy themselves as long as they live; 13 also that it is God’s gift to man that every one should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil. 14 I know that whatever God does endures for ever; nothing can be added to it, nor anything taken from it; God has made it so, in order that men should fear before him. 15 That which is, already has been; that which is to be, already has been; and God seeks what has been driven away.
Judgment and the Future Belong to God
16 Moreover I saw under the sun that in the place of justice, even there was wickedness, and in the place of righteousness, even there was wickedness. 17 I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the wicked, for he has appointed a time for every matter, and for every work. 18 I said in my heart with regard to the sons of men that God is testing them to show them that they are but beasts. 19 For the fate of the sons of men and the fate of beasts is the same; as one dies, so dies the other. They all have the same breath, and man has no advantage over the beasts; for all is vanity. 20 All go to one place; all are from the dust, and all turn to dust again. 21 Who knows whether the spirit of man goes upward and the spirit of the beast goes down to the earth? 22 So I saw that there is nothing better than that a man should enjoy his work, for that is his lot; who can bring him to see what will be after him?
Ecclesiastes 3
New International Version
Ecclesiastes 3
New International Version
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)
15 Whatever is has already been,(N)
and what will be has been before;(O)
and God will call the past to account.[b]
16 And I saw something else under the sun:
In the place of judgment—wickedness was there,
in the place of justice—wickedness was there.
17 I said to myself,
“God will bring into judgment(P)
both the righteous and the wicked,
for there will be a time for every activity,
a time to judge every deed.”(Q)
18 I also said to myself, “As for humans, God tests them so that they may see that they are like the animals.(R) 19 Surely the fate of human beings(S) is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath[c]; humans have no advantage over animals. Everything is meaningless. 20 All go to the same place; all come from dust, and to dust all return.(T) 21 Who knows if the human spirit rises upward(U) and if the spirit of the animal goes down into the earth?”
22 So I saw that there is nothing better for a person than to enjoy their work,(V) because that is their lot.(W) For who can bring them to see what will happen after them?
