Ecclesiastes:11
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Send out your bread on the face of the waters ,
for you shall find it in many days .
*
Give a share to seven ,
or even to eight ;
for you do not know what evil may be on the earth .
*
If the clouds are full of rain ,
they empty on the earth .
And if the tree falls in the south ,
or in the north ,
in the place where the tree falls ,
there it shall be .
*
He who watches the wind shall not sow .
And he who looks at the clouds shall not reap .
*
As you do not know what is the way of the wind ,
as the bones in the pregnant woman '
s womb ,
even so you do not know the works of God who makes all .
*
Sow your seed in the morning ,
and do not rest your hand until evening ;
for you do not know what shall be blessed ,
this or that ;
or whether they both shall be good as one .
*
Also the light is sweet ;
yea ,
it is good for the eyes to behold the sun .
*
But if the man lives many years ,
let him rejoice in them all ,
and remember the days of darkness ,
for they shall be many .
All that may come is vanity .
*
Rejoice ,
O young man ,
in your youth .
And make your heart glad in the days of your youth ,
and walk in the ways of your heart ,
and in the sight of your eyes ;
but know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment .
*
So then remove vexation from your heart ,
and put away evil from your flesh .
For childhood and prime of life are vanity .
