Does anyone know where in the Bible........?

Question

it says "Weep at a birth, and Rejoice at a death". They may not be in the same passage, but I have been told that it is written somewhere in the Bible. Any assistant would be greatly appreciated. Thnx!

Answer 1

I just looked it up. It's not there.

But there is Prov 23:25 and Luke 1:14
Ecclesiates 7:1 [On Wisdom ] A good name is better than fine perfume, and the day of death better than the day of birth.

Answer 2

It is not Ecclesiastes 3 ?

How about this one?
"But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none; And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not" (1 Corinthians 7:29-30).

Or

"Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep" (Romans 12:15).


Other than these passages, I do not think it is in there as you have quoted....is that a paraphrase?

Answer 3

I have never heard of these passages and I have read the Bible all the way through several times.

If you go to BibleGateway.com there is a way to look up where words or phrases occur in the Bible. You should be careful about what people say about the Bible, many people quote what they think is a verse, but it is not in the Bible. Best be sure.

Answer 4

i ain't great at finding the verses but i see this:

all things to glorify Lord God.

so in times new roman font print these things

GOD
EMPEROR
KING
LORD
ANGEL
GENERAL
DEATH

and read between the lines and what or who do they describe and give fame too? Seem to Me a name pronounced LARRY and TODD.

and if God is ONE like Gott es EIN and both are 1.

1=Stevens.n cause both are .I7 (.seventeen) mixed up and stitched together.

so perhaps they called LORD GOD a Larry Todd Stevens.n.

spirit and intent of bible is said to be universal even in different languages so see a french stop sign as I ARRET I. and if that LTS had an arm appearing cild IIII I . Then reading between the lines it is apparent who GOD really is on one day was.

and why do you hate HIM? Is it cause you discovered GOD IS NOT YOU and can't work magic to fix your poor broken lives? Be happy for HIM like Jesus said love your enemies. Otherwise Just go to hell.

Answer 5

maybe:

Jn 16:19 Jesus saw that they wanted to ask him about those things. So he said to them, “Are you asking one another what I meant? Didn’t you understand when I said, ‘In a little while, you will no longer see me. Then after a little while, you will see me’?
Jn 16:20 What I’m about to tell you is true. You will cry and be full of sorrow while the world is full of joy. You will be sad, but your sadness will turn into joy.
Jn 16:21 “A woman giving birth to a baby has pain. This is because her time to give birth has come. But when her baby is born, she forgets the pain. She forgets because she is so happy that a baby has been born into the world.
Jn 16:22 “That’s the way it is with you. Now it’s your time to be sad. But I will see you again. Then you will be full of joy. And no one will take your joy away.

Answer 6

Not there.

Perhaps a paraphrase from the wisdom man.
You know the one who built temple to other gods.
Eccl 3:2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
Eccl 3:3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
Eccl 3:4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
Eccl 3:5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
Eccl 3:6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
Eccl 3:7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
Eccl 3:8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
Eccl 3:9 What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth?
Eccl 3:10 I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.
Eccl 3:11 He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.

Answer 7

Romans 12:15
Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.

Answer 8

I can't find it with those words, but Ecclesiates 7: 1 says (paraphrasing) day of death is better than day of birth. Because at death one has had the opportunity to make a name for themselves

Answer 9

Not there. Maybe you saw it in a different source.
