עֵת לִקְרוֹעַ וְעֵת לִתְפּוֹר עֵת לַחֲשׁוֹת וְעֵת לְדַבֵּֽר
A time to rend, and a time to sew; A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
עֵת לֶֽאֱהֹב וְעֵת לִשְׂנֹא עֵת מִלְחָמָה וְעֵת שָׁלֽוֹם
A time to love, and a time to hate; A time for war, and a time for peace.
מַה־יִּתְרוֹן הָֽעוֹשֶׂה בַּאֲשֶׁר הוּא עָמֵֽל
What profit hath he that worketh in that he laboureth?
רָאִיתִי אֶת־הָֽעִנְיָן אֲשֶׁר נָתַן אֱלֹהִים לִבְנֵי הָאָדָם לַעֲנוֹת בּֽוֹ
I have seen the task which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised therewith.
