Ecclesiastes 11:1-6
Cast Your Bread upon the Waters

1 Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days.

1:

2 Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth.

2:

3 If the clouds be full of rain, they empty [themselves] upon the earth: and if the tree fall toward the south, or toward the north, in the place where the tree falleth, there it shall be.

3:

4 He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.

4:

5 As thou knowest not what [is] the way of the spirit, [nor] how the bones [do grow] in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.

5:

6 In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both [shall be] alike good.

6:
