World English Bible
Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
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 toward the south, or toward 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.
6 In the morning sow your seed, And in the evening don`t withhold your hand; For you don`t know which will prosper, whether this or that, Or whether they both will be equally good.
7 Truly the light is sweet, And a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to see the sun.
