Unchanging Order of Events

For everything there is a season, and a time
for every affair under the heavens.
A time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted.
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
a time to tear down, and a time to build.
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and a time to dance.
A time to scatter stones, and a time to gather them;
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing.
A time to seek, and a time to lose;
a time to keep and a time to cast away.
A time to rend, and a time to sew;
a time to be silent and a time to speak.
A time to love, and a time to hate;
a time of war and a time of peace.
