Ecclesiastes 11:1-5 ▼

1 Send your grain overseas, for after many days you will get a return.

2 Divide your merchandise among seven or even eight investments, for you do not know what calamity may happen on earth.

3 If the clouds are full of rain, they will empty themselves on the earth, and whether a tree falls to the south or to the north, the tree will lie wherever it falls.

4 He who watches the wind will not sow, and he who observes the clouds will not reap.

5 Just as you do not know the path of the wind, or how the bones form in the womb of a pregnant woman, so you do not know the work of God who makes everything.
