1 Cast your bread over running waters. For, after a long time, you shall find it again.
2 Give a portion to seven, and indeed even to eight. For you do not know what evil may be upon the earth in the future.
3 If the clouds have been filled, they will pour forth rain upon the earth. If a tree falls to the south, or to the north, or to whatever direction it may fall, there it shall remain.
4 Whoever heeds the wind will not sow. And whoever considers the clouds will never reap.
