1 Свему има време, и сваком послу под небом има време.
1 PARA todas las cosas hay sazón, y todo lo que se quiere debajo del cielo, [tiene su] tiempo:
1 For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven:
2 Има време кад се рађа, и време кад се умире; време кад се сади, и време кад се чупа посађено;
2 Tiempo de nacer, y tiempo de morir; tiempo de plantar, y tiempo de arrancar lo plantado;
2 a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
3 Време кад се убија, и време кад се исцељује; време кад се разваљује, и време кад се гради.
3 Tiempo de matar, y tiempo de curar; tiempo de destruir, y tiempo de edificar;
3 a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4 Време плачу и време смеху; време ридању и време игрању;
4 Tiempo de llorar, y tiempo de reir; tiempo de endechar, y tiempo de bailar;
4 a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5 Време кад се размеће камење, и време кад се скупља камење; време кад се грли, и време кад се оставља грљење;
5 Tiempo de esparcir las piedras, y tiempo de allegar las piedras; tiempo de abrazar, y tiempo de alejarse de abrazar;
5 a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6 Време кад се тече, и време кад се губи; време кад се чува, и време кад се баца;
6 Tiempo de agenciar, y tiempo de perder; tiempo de guardar, y tiempo de arrojar;
6 a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7 Време кад се дере, и време кад се сашива; време кад се ћути и време кад се говори.
7 Tiempo de romper, y tiempo de coser; tiempo de callar, y tiempo de hablar;
7 a time to tear, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8 Време кад се љуби, и време кад се мрзи; време рату и време миру.
8 Tiempo de amar, y tiempo de aborrecer; tiempo de guerra, y tiempo de paz.
8 a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace.
9 Каква је корист ономе који ради од оног око чега се труди?
9 ¿Qué provecho tiene el que trabaja en lo que trabaja?
9 What profit has he who works in that in which he labors?
10 Видео сам послове које је Бог дао синовима људским да се муче око њих.
10 Yo he visto el trabajo que Dios ha dado á los hijos de los hombres para que en él se ocupasen.
10 I have seen the burden which God has given to the sons of men to be afflicted with.
11 Све је учинио да је лепо у своје време, и савет метнуо им је у срце, али да не може човек докучити дела која Бог твори, ни почетка ни краја.
11 Todo lo hizo hermoso en su tiempo: y aun el mundo dió en su corazón, de tal manera que no alcance el hombre la obra de Dios desde el principio hasta el cabo.
11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in their hearts, yet so that man can’t find out the work that God has done from the beginning even to the end.
12 Дознах да нема ништа боље за њих него да се веселе и чине добро за живота свог.
12 Yo he conocido que no hay mejor para ellos, que alegrarse, y hacer bien en su vida:
12 I know that there is nothing better for them than to rejoice, and to do good as long as they live.
13 И кад сваки човек једе и пије и ужива добра од сваког труда свог, то је дар Божји.
13 Y también que es don de Dios que todo hombre coma y beba, y goce el bien de toda su labor.
13 Also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy good in all his labor, is the gift of God.
14 Дознах да шта год твори Бог оно траје довека, не може му се ништа додати нити се од тога може шта одузети; и Бог твори да би Га се бојали.
14 He entendido que todo lo que Dios hace, eso será perpetuo: sobre aquello no se añadirá, ni de ello se disminuirá; y hácelo Dios, para que delante de él teman los hombres.
14 I know that whatever God does, it shall be forever. Nothing can be added to it, nor anything taken from it; and God has done it, that men should fear before him.
15 Шта је било то је сада, и шта ће бити то је већ било; јер Бог повраћа шта је прошло.
15 Aquello que fué, ya es: y lo que ha de ser, fué ya; y Dios restaura lo que pasó.
15 That which is has been long ago, and that which is to be has been long ago. God seeks again that which is passed away.
16 Још видех под сунцем где је место суда безбожност и место правде безбожност.
16 Vi más debajo del sol: en lugar del juicio, allí la impiedad; y en lugar de la justicia, allí la iniquidad.
16 Moreover I saw under the sun, in the place of justice, that wickedness was there; and in the place of righteousness, that wickedness was there.
17 И рекох у срцу свом: Бог ће судити праведнику и безбожнику; јер има време свему и сваком послу.
17 Y dije yo en mi corazón: Al justo y al impío juzgará Dios; porque allí hay tiempo á todo lo que se quiere y sobre todo lo que se hace.
17 I said in my heart, “God will judge the righteous and the wicked; for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work.”
18 Рекох у срцу свом за синове људске да им је Бог показао да виде да су као стока.
18 Dije en mi corazón, en orden á la condición de los hijos de los hombres, que Dios los probaría, para que así echaran de ver ellos mismos que son [semejantes] á las bestias.
18 I said in my heart, “As for the sons of men, God tests them, so that they may see that they themselves are like animals.
19 Јер шта бива синовима људским то бива и стоци, једнако им бива; како гине она тако гину и они, и сви имају исти дух; и човек ништа није бољи од стоке, јер је све таштина.
19 Porque el suceso de los hijos de los hombres, y el suceso del animal, el mismo suceso es: como mueren los unos, así mueren los otros; y una misma respiración tienen todos; ni tiene más el hombre que la bestia: porque todo es vanidad.
19 For that which happens to the sons of men happens to animals. Even one thing happens to them. As the one dies, so the other dies. Yes, they have all one breath; and man has no advantage over the animals, for all is vanity.
20 Све иде на једно место; све је од праха и све се враћа у прах.
20 Todo va á un lugar: todo es hecho del polvo, y todo se tornará en el mismo polvo.
20 All go to one place. All are from the dust, and all turn to dust again.
21 Ко зна да дух синова људских иде горе, а дух стоке да иде доле под земљу?
21 ¿Quién sabe que el espíritu de los hijos de los hombres suba arriba, y que el espíritu del animal descienda debajo de la tierra?
21 Who knows the spirit of man, whether it goes upward, and the spirit of the animal, whether it goes downward to the earth?”
22 Зато видех да ништа нема боље човеку него да се весели оним што ради, јер му је то део; јер ко ће га довести да види шта ће бити после њега?
22 Así que he visto que no hay cosa mejor que alegrarse el hombre con lo que hiciere; porque esta es su parte: porque ¿quién lo llevará para que vea lo que ha de ser después de él?
22 Therefore I saw that there is nothing better than that a man should rejoice in his works, for that is his portion; for who can bring him to see what will be after him?

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him?" or of beast, as in the book of Solomon, "Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?" or of that physical spirit which is called wind, for so the Psalmist calls it: …

And what Solomon spoke of others will suit you also; for he said, in that case, There is a time to bear and a time to die; but to you, in the reverse order, there was a time to die and a time to be born; and one and the same time effected both of these, and your birth …

As of even honey repletion and satiety, though it be of honey, produce vomiting; and, as Solomon says and I think, there is a time for every thing, and that which is good ceases to be good if it be not done in a good way; just as a flower is quite out of season in winter, and just as …

Or perhaps this was the time for silence spoken of by Solomon the wise. For, when life is buffeted by so fierce a storm that all the intelligence of those who are instructed in the word is filled with the deceit of false reasoning and confounded, like an eye filled with dust, when men are stunned by strange and awful …

And, accordingly, if these last had been still alive at the advent of our Lord, when the time not of casting stones away but of gathering them together had come, they would have immediately made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake.
