Ecclesiastes 11:1-3 New English Translation (NET)

1. Send your grain overseas,for after many days you will get a return.

2. Divide your merchandise among seven or even eight investments,for you do not know what calamity may happen on earth.

3. If the clouds are full of rain, they will empty themselves on the earth,and whether a tree falls to the south or to the north, the tree will lie wherever it falls.
