1 Ship your grain across the sea;after many days you may receive a return.
2 Invest in seven ventures, yes, in eight;you do not know what disaster may come upon the land.
3 If clouds are full of water,they pour rain on the earth.Whether a tree falls to the south or to the north,in the place where it falls, there it will lie.
4 Whoever watches the wind will not plant;whoever looks at the clouds will not reap.
5 As you do not know the path of the wind,or how the body is formed in a mother’s womb,so you cannot understand the work of God,the Maker of all things.
