Cast Your Bread upon the Waters
3
If the clouds are full of rain, they empty themselves on the earth, and if a tree falls to the south or to the north, in the place where the tree falls, there it will lie.
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 6the spirit comes to 7the bones in the womba of a woman with child, so you do not know the work of God who makes everything.
6
In the morning sow your seed, and at evening 8withhold not your hand, for you do not know which will prosper, this or that, or whether both alike will be good.
7
Light is sweet, and it is pleasant for the eyes to 9see the sun.
8
So if a person lives many years, let him rejoice in them all; but let him remember 10that the days of darkness will be many. All that comes is 11vanity.
