heaven: <\/br><strong>2<\/strong> a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; <\/br><strong>3<\/strong> a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; <\/br><strong>4<\/strong> a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; <\/br><strong>5<\/strong> a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; <\/br><strong>6<\/strong> a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; <\/br><strong>7<\/strong> a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; <\/br><strong>8<\/strong> a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace. <\/br><strong>9<\/strong> What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboreth? <\/br><strong>10<\/strong> I have seen the travail which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised therewith. <\/br><strong>11<\/strong> He hath made everything beautiful in its time: also he hath set eternity in their heart, yet so that man cannot find out the work that God hath done from the beginning even to the end. <\/br><strong>12<\/strong> I know that there is nothing better for them, than to rejoice, and to do good so long as they live. <\/br><strong>13<\/strong> And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy good in all his labor, is the gift of God. <\/br><strong>14<\/strong> I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor anything taken from it; and God hath done it, that men should fear before him. <\/br><strong>15<\/strong> That which is hath been long ago; and that which is to be hath long ago been: and God seeketh again that which is passed away. <\/br><strong>16<\/strong> And moreover I saw under the sun, in the place of justice, that wickedness was there; and in the place of righteousness, that wickedness was there. <\/br><strong>17<\/strong> I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the wicked; for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work. <\/br><strong>18<\/strong> I said in my heart, `It is&#8217; because of the sons of men, that God may prove them, and that they may see that they themselves are `but as&#8217; beasts. <\/br><strong>19<\/strong> For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; and man hath no preeminence above the beasts: for all is vanity. <\/br><strong>20<\/strong> All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again. <\/br><strong>21<\/strong> Who knoweth the spirit of man, whether it goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast, whether it goeth downward to the earth? <\/br><strong>22<\/strong> Wherefore I saw that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his works; for that is his portion: for who shall bring him `back&#8217; to see what shall be after him? <\/br><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n    google_ad_client =
