1 Cast your bread upon the waters,for you will find it after many days.
2 Give a portion to seven, or even eight,for you do not know what calamity may happen on the earth.
3 If the clouds are full of rain,they empty out on the land;and if a tree falls to the north or south,in the place that the tree falls, there it will be.
4 He who observes the wind will not sow,and he who regards the clouds will not reap.
5 As you do not know the way of the wind,or how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child;likewise you do not know the work of Godwho has made everything.
6 In the morning sow your seed,and in the evening do not let your hand rest;because you do not know which activity will find success,this way or that way,or if the both will be good.
7 Light is sweet,and good for the eyes to see the sun;
