Time

They were snatched away before their time, and their foundations were swept away by a flood.

Can you count the months they are pregnant? Do you know the time they give birth?

You will place them in a fiery furnace at the time of Your appearing. In His wrath the LORD will engulf them, and the fire will consume them.

In the time of evil they will not be ashamed, and in the days of famine they will be satisfied.

The salvation of the righteous is from the LORD; He is their stronghold in time of trouble.

But my prayer to You, O LORD, is for a time of favor. In Your abundant loving devotion, O God, answer me with Your sure salvation.

“When I choose a time, I will judge fairly.

Is His loving devotion gone forever? Has His promise failed for all time?

You will rise up and have compassion on Zion, for it is time to show her favor—the appointed time has come.

You will rise up and have compassion on Zion, for it is time to show her favor—the appointed time has come.

It is time for the LORD to act, for they have broken Your law.

A song of ascents. Many a time they have persecuted me from my youth—let Israel now declare—

…many a time they have persecuted me from my youth, but they have not prevailed against me.

The slacker does not plow in season; at harvest time he looks, but nothing is there.

Like the cold of snow in the time of harvest is a trustworthy messenger to those who send him; he refreshes the soul of his masters.

Like a broken tooth or a foot out of joint is confidence in a faithless man in time of trouble.

To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven:

…a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot,

…a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot,

…a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot,

…a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot,

…a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to break down and a time to build,

…a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to break down and a time to build,

…a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to break down and a time to build,

…a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to break down and a time to build,

…a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance,

…a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance,

…a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance,

…a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance,

…a time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones together, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,

…a time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones together, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,

…a time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones together, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,

…a time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones together, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,

…a time to search and a time to count as lost, a time to keep and a time to discard,

…a time to search and a time to count as lost, a time to keep and a time to discard,

…a time to search and a time to count as lost, a time to keep and a time to discard,

…a time to search and a time to count as lost, a time to keep and a time to discard,

…a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak,

…a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak,

…a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak,

…a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak,

…a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.

…a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.

…a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.

…a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.

He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men, yet they cannot fathom the work that God has done from beginning to end.

I said in my heart, “God will judge the righteous and the wicked, since there is a time for every activity and every deed.”

Do not be excessively wicked, and do not be a fool. Why should you die before your time?

Whoever keeps his command will come to no harm, and a wise heart knows the right time and procedure.

For there is a right time and procedure to every purpose, though a man’s misery weighs heavily upon him.

All this I have seen, applying my mind to every deed that is done under the sun; there is a time when one man lords it over another to his own detriment.

I saw something else under the sun: The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong; neither is the bread to the wise, nor the wealth to the intelligent, nor the favor to the skillful. For time and chance happen to all.

For surely no man knows his time: Like fish caught in a cruel net or birds trapped in a snare, so men are ensnared in an evil time that suddenly falls upon them.

Blessed are you, O land whose king is a son of nobles, and whose princes feast at the proper time—for strength and not for drunkenness.

O daughters of Jerusalem, I adjure you by the gazelles and does of the field: Do not arouse or awaken love until the time is right.

O daughters of Jerusalem, I adjure you by the gazelles and does of the field: Do not arouse or awaken love until the time is right.

By the time He knows enough to reject evil and choose good, He will be eating curds and honey.

The LORD will bring on you and on your people and on the house of your father a time unlike any since the day Ephraim separated from Judah—He will bring the king of Assyria.”

You have enlarged the nation and increased its joy. The people rejoice before You as they rejoice at harvest time, as men rejoice in dividing the plunder.

Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish and sustain it with justice and righteousness from that time and forevermore. The zeal of the LORD of Hosts will accomplish this.

On that day the Lord will extend His hand a second time to recover the remnant of His people from Assyria, from Egypt, from Pathros, from Cush, from Elam, from Shinar, from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.

Hyenas will howl in her fortresses and jackals in her luxurious palaces. Babylon’s time is at hand, and her days will not be prolonged.

At that time gifts will be brought to the LORD of Hosts—from a people tall and smooth-skinned, from a people widely feared, from a powerful nation of strange speech, whose land is divided by rivers—to Mount Zion, the place of the Name of the LORD of Hosts.

At that time Tyre will be forgotten for seventy years—the span of a king’s life. But at the end of seventy years, it will happen to Tyre as in the song of the harlot:

In a very short time, will not Lebanon become an orchard, and the orchard seem like a forest?

O LORD, be gracious to us! We wait for You. Be our strength every morning and our salvation in time of trouble.

At that time Merodach-baladan son of Baladan king of Babylon sent letters and a gift to Hezekiah, for he had heard about Hezekiah’s illness and recovery.

The time will surely come when everything in your palace and all that your fathers have stored up until this day will be carried off to Babylon. Nothing will be left, says the LORD.

You have never heard; you have never understood; for a long time your ears have not been open. For I knew how deceitful you are; you have been called a rebel from birth.

Come near to Me and listen to this: From the beginning I have not spoken in secret; from the time it happened, I was there.” And now the Lord GOD has sent me, accompanied by His Spirit.

This is what the LORD says: “In the time of favor I will answer You, and in the day of salvation I will help You; I will keep You and appoint You to be a covenant for the people, to restore the land, to apportion its desolate inheritances,

The least of you will become a thousand, and the smallest a mighty nation. I am the LORD; in its time I will accomplish it quickly.

…say to a tree, ‘You are my father,’ and to a stone, ‘You gave me birth.’ They have turned their backs to Me and not their faces. Yet in the time of trouble, they say, ‘Rise up and save us!’

But where are the gods you made for yourselves? Let them rise up in your time of trouble and save you if they can; for your gods are as numerous as your cities, O Judah.

At that time they will call Jerusalem The Throne of the LORD, and all the nations will be gathered in Jerusalem to honor the name of the LORD. They will no longer follow the stubbornness of their evil hearts.

At that time it will be said to this people and to Jerusalem, “A searing wind from the barren heights in the desert blows toward the daughter of My people, but not to winnow or to sift;

“At that time,” declares the LORD, “the bones of the kings of Judah, the bones of the officials, the bones of the priests, the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the people of Jerusalem will be removed from their graves.

Even the stork in the sky knows her appointed seasons. The turtledove, the swift, and the thrush keep their time of migration, but My people do not know the requirements of the LORD.

We hoped for peace, but no good has come, for a time of healing, but there was only terror.

They are worthless, a work to be mocked. In the time of their punishment they will perish.

For this is what the LORD says: “Behold, at this time I will sling out the inhabitants of the land and bring distress upon them so that they may be captured.”

For from the time I brought your fathers out of the land of Egypt until today, I strongly warned them again and again, saying, ‘Obey My voice.’

Then the cities of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem will go and cry out to the gods to which they have been burning incense, but these gods certainly will not save them in their time of disaster.

As for you, do not pray for these people. Do not raise up a cry or a prayer on their behalf, for I will not be listening when they call out to Me in their time of disaster.

Then the word of the LORD came to me a second time:

Have You rejected Judah completely? Do You despise Zion? Why have You stricken us so that we are beyond healing? We hoped for peace, but no good has come, and for the time of healing, but there was only terror.

The LORD said: “Surely I will deliver you for a good purpose; surely I will intercede with your enemy in your time of trouble, in your time of distress.

The LORD said: “Surely I will deliver you for a good purpose; surely I will intercede with your enemy in your time of trouble, in your time of distress.

“Therefore behold, I will inform them, and this time I will make them know My power and My might; then they will know that My name is the LORD.

At any time I might announce that a nation or kingdom will be uprooted, torn down, and destroyed.

And if at another time I announce that I will build up and establish a nation or kingdom,

But You, O LORD, know all their deadly plots against me. Do not wipe out their guilt or blot out their sin from Your sight. Let them be overthrown before You; deal with them in the time of Your anger.

All nations will serve him and his son and grandson, until the time of his own land comes; then many nations and great kings will enslave him.

How awful that day will be! None will be like it! It is the time of Jacob’s distress, but he will be saved out of it.

“At that time,” declares the LORD, “I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they will be My people.”

At that time the army of the king of Babylon was besieging Jerusalem, and Jeremiah the prophet was imprisoned in the courtyard of the guard, which was in the palace of the king of Judah.

“This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Take these deeds—both the sealed copy and the open copy of the deed of purchase—and put them in a clay jar to preserve them for a long time.

While Jeremiah was still confined in the courtyard of the guard, the word of the LORD came to him a second time:
