Ecclesiastes 3:6-10
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 3

6A time to search and a time to give up as lost; A time to keep and a time to throw away. 7A time to tear apart and a time to sew together; A time to be silent and a time to speak. 8A time to love and a time to hate; A time for war and a time for peace.
9What benefit is there for the worker from that in which he labors? 10I have seen the task which God has given the sons of mankind with which to occupy themselves.
King James Version

10I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.
