Ecclesiastes:11

* Cast your bread upon the waters , For you will find it after many days . * Give a serving to seven , and also to eight , For you do not know what evil will be on the earth . * If the clouds are full of rain , They empty themselves upon the earth ; And if a tree falls to the south or the north , In the place where the tree falls , there it shall lie . * He who observes the wind will not sow , And he who regards the clouds will not reap . * As you do not know what is the way of the wind , Or how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child , So you do not know the works of God who makes everything . * In the morning sow your seed , And in the evening do not withhold your hand ; For you do not know which will prosper , Either this or that , Or whether both alike will be good . * Truly the light is sweet , And it is pleasant for the eyes to behold the sun ; * But if a man lives many years And rejoices in them all , Yet let him remember the days of darkness , For they will be many . All that is coming is vanity . * Rejoice , O young man , in your youth , And let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth ; Walk in the ways of your heart , And in the sight of your eyes ; But know that for all these God will bring you into judgment . * Therefore remove sorrow from your heart , And put away evil from your flesh , For childhood and youth are vanity .
