<p>For everything there is a season,<br /> And a time for every matter under heaven:<br /> A time to be born, and a time to die;<br /> A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;<br /> A time to kill, and a time to heal;<br /> A time to break down, and a time to build up;<br /> A time to weep, and a time to laugh;<br /> A time to mourn, and a time to dance;<br /> A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;<br /> A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;<br /> A time to seek, and a time to lose;<br /> A time to keep, and a time to throw away;<br /> A time to tear, and a time to sew;<br /> A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;<br /> A time to love, and a time to hate,<br /> A time for war, and a time for peace. </p>
