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;
8 for if a man lives many years,may he rejoice in all of them.But let him also rememberthat the days of darkness are many.Everything that comes is vanity.
9 Rejoice, O young man, in your youth,and in your early years may your heart do you good;walk in the path of your heartand the desire of your eyes;but know that in all these thingsGod will bring you into judgment.
