Ecclesiastes 11:1-7

Cast
<07971> (8761)
thy bread
<03899>
upon
<06440>
the waters
<04325>_:
for thou shalt find
<04672> (8799)
it after many
<07230>
days
<03117>_.
{upon...: Heb. upon the face of the waters}
Give
<05414> (8798)
a portion
<02506>
to seven
<07651>_,
and also to eight
<08083>_;
for thou knowest
<03045> (8799)
not what evil
<07451>
shall be upon the earth
<0776>_.
If the clouds
<05645>
be full
<04390> (8735)
of rain
<01653>_,
they empty
<07324> (8686)
[themselves] upon the earth
<0776>_:
and if the tree
<06086>
fall
<05307> (8799)
toward the south
<01864>_,
or toward the north
<06828>_,
in the place
<04725>
where the tree
<06086>
falleth
<05307> (8799)_,
there it shall be
<01933> (8799)_.
He that observeth
<08104> (8802)
the wind
<07307>
shall not sow
<02232> (8799)_;
and he that regardeth
<07200> (8802)
the clouds
<05645>
shall not reap
<07114> (8799)_.
As thou knowest
<03045> (8802)
not what [is] the way
<01870>
of the spirit
<07307>_,
[nor] how the bones
<06106>
[do grow] in the womb
<0990>
of her that is with child
<04392>_:
even so thou knowest
<03045> (8799)
not the works
<04639>
of God
<0430>
who maketh
<06213> (8799)
all.
In the morning
<01242>
sow
<02232> (8798)
thy seed
<02233>_,
and in the evening
<06153>
withhold
<03240> (8686)
not thine hand
<03027>_:
for thou knowest
<03045> (8802)
not whether
<0335>
shall prosper
<03787> (8799)_,
either this or that, or whether they both
<08147>
[shall be] alike
<0259>
good
<02896>_.
{shall prosper: Heb. shall be right}
Truly the light
<0216>
[is] sweet
<04966>_,
and a pleasant
<02896>
[thing it is] for the eyes
<05869>
to behold
<07200> (8800)
the sun
<08121>_:
