There will be time to murder and create,

And time for all the works and days of hands

Explanation:

This lines could refer to "A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted" when mentions murder and creation. Murder meaning time to pluck and creation to born and plant.

"And time for all the works and days of hands" could refer to "to every thing there is a season".
