Amplified Bible

Ecclesiastes 3:1-5 Amplified Bible (AMP)

1. TO EVERYTHING there is a season, and a time for every matter or purpose 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, [Heb. 9:27.]

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,
