Unlike the credit Judy Collins gives to Pete Seeger, the words of "turn turn turn" are based the Book of Ecclesiastes (Kohelet), chapter 3:
In English:
1 For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:
2 a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
3 a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4 a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
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 a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7 a time to tear, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8 a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace.

Dear all
On the occasion of our "Die Stimme" ending it's fantastic way of 75 years (Just think it was at the middle of WW2. A refugee who escaped the facist nationalistic Regime of Antonscu and reached that time Palestine took the task to start a periodical in German for a comparatively small group of people). So allow me to cite our Bible through Pete Seeger who wrote the melody and Judy Collins who sings about when it comes the time for something.
