The chapter uses parallelism with the phrase, "a time to." The overall purpose is to show that Yahweh directs the events of the world and therefore, they have purpose. This gives the quotation a poetic style. The ULB sets poetry (3:1-8 and 3:15) farther to the right than the rest of the text to show that it is poetry.
