1. Cast your bread on the waters;for you shall find it after many days.
2. Give a portion to seven, yes, even to eight;for you don’t know what evil will be on the earth.
3. If the clouds are full of rain, they empty themselves on the earth;and if a tree falls towards the south, or towards the north,in the place where the tree falls, there shall it be.
4. He who observes the wind won’t sow;and he who regards the clouds won’t reap.
