CHAP. III.
1 All things haue their time. 14 The workes of God are perfite,
and cause vs to feare him. 17 God shall iudge both the
iust, and vniust.
1 To all things there is an note appointed time, and
a time to euery purpose vnder the heauen.
2 A time to bee borne, and a time to die: a
time to plant, and a time to plucke vp that which
is planted.
3 A time to slay, and a time to heale: a time
to breake downe, and a time to builde.
4 A time to weepe, and a time to laugh: a
time to mourne, and a time to dance.
5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to
gather stones: a time to embrace, and a time to be
farre from embracing.
6 A time to seeke, and a time to lose: a time
to keepe, and a time to cast away.
7 A time to rent, and a time to sowe: a time
to keepe silence, and a time to speake.
8 A time to loue, and a time to hate: a time
of warre, and a time of peace.
9 What profite hath hee that worketh of the
thing wherein he trauaileth?
10 I haue seene the trauaile that God hath giuen
to þe; sonnes of men note to humble them thereby.
11 He hath made euery thing beautifull in his
time: also he hath set the note worlde in their heart,
yet can not man finde out the worke that God
hath wrought fr&obar; the beginning euen to the end.
12 I know that there is nothing good in them,
but to reioyce, and to doe good in his life.
13 And also that euery man eateth and drinketh,
and seeth the commoditie of all his labour.
this is the note gift of God.
14 I knowe that whatsoeuer God shall doe, it
shalbe for note euer: to it can no man adde, and from
it can none diminish: for God hath done it, that
they should feare before him.
15 What is that that hath bene? that is nowe:
and that that shalbe, hath now bene: for God note requireth
that which is past.
16 And moreouer I haue seene vnder the
sunne the place of iudgement, where was wickednesse,
and the place of iustice where was iniquitie.
17 I thought in mine heart, God wil iudge the
-- --
Of man and beast.
iust and the wicked: for time is note there for euery
purpose and for euery worke.
18 I considered in mine heart the state of the
children of men that God had note purged them: yet
to see to, they are in themselues as beastes.
19 For the condition of the children of men,
and the condition of beasts are euen as one note condition
vnto them. As the one dyeth, so dyeth the
other: for they haue all one breath, and there is no
excellency of man aboue þe; beast: for all is vanitie.
20 All goe to one place, & all was of the dust,
and all shall returne to the dust.
21 Who note knoweth whether the spirit of man
ascend vpward, and the spirit of the beast descend
downeward to the earth?
22 Therefore I see that there is nothing better
then that a man shoulde note reioyce in his affaires,
because that is his portion. For who shal bring him
to see what shalbe after him?
