7 There is a time to tear cloth and a time to sew it. There is a time to be silent and a time to speak.
8 There is a time to love and a time to hate. There is a time for war and a time for peace.
9 Do people really gain anything from their hard work?
10 I saw all the hard work God gave us to do.
11 God gave us the ability to think about his world, but we can never completely understand everything he does. And yet, he does everything at just the right time.
12 I learned that the best thing for people to do is to be happy and enjoy themselves as long as they live.
13 God wants everyone to eat, drink, and enjoy their work. These are gifts from God.
