For Everything There is a Season

                                                         from Ecclesiastes

 

For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under the heaven:

A time to be born and a time to die;

A time to plant and a time to 1)pluck up that which has planted;

A time to kill and a time to 2)heal;

A time to break down and a time to build up;

A time to weep and a time to laugh;

A time to morn and a time to dance;

A time to 3)cast away stones and a time to gather stones together;

A time to 4)embrace and a time to 5)refrain from embracing;

A time to get and a time to lose;

A time to keep and a time to cast away;

A time to 6)rend 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 of war and a time of peace.

 

万物有时节

 

大千世界中,万物有时节,一切自有深意:

有诞生,也有死亡的时候;

有种植,也有采摘的时候;

有杀伤,也有治疗的时候;

有坍塌,也有修建的时候;

有哭泣,也有欢笑的时候;

有悲恸,也有起舞的时候;

有投掷石块,也有收集石块的时候;

有拥抱,也有不拥抱的时候;

有收获,也有失去的时候;

有保留,也有抛弃的时候;

有撕碎,也有缝补的时候;

有沉默,也有发言的时候;

有爱,也有恨的时候;

有战争,也有和平的时候。
