To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven:
A time to be born, And a time to die;
A time to plant, And a time to harvest;
A time to kill, And a time to heal;
A time to break down, And a time to build up;
A time to weep, And a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, And a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones, And a time to gather stones;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to gain, And a time to lose;
A time to keep, And a time to throw away;
A time to tear, And a time to sew
A time to keep silence, And a time to speak;
A time to love, And a time to hate;
A time to war, And a time of peace.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
