1. Put your money into trade across the ocean. After a while you will earn something from it.
2. Give shares of what you earn to a lot of people. After all, you don't know what great trouble might come on the land.
3. Clouds that are full of water pour rain down on the earth. A tree might fall to the south or the north. It will stay in the place where it falls.
4. Anyone who keeps on watching the wind won't plant seeds. Anyone who keeps looking at the clouds won't gather crops.
5. You don't know the path the wind takes. You don't know how a baby is made inside its mother. So you can't understand how God works either. He made everything.
6. In the morning plant your seeds. In the evening keep your hands busy. You don't know what will succeed. It may be one or the other. Or both might do equally well.
7. Light is sweet. People enjoy being out in the sun.
