5 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 keep and a time to throw away,
7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent(A) and a time to speak,
8 a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
