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.
5. As you don’t know what is the way of the wind,nor how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child;even so you don’t know the work of God who does all.
