for you will find it after many days.
11 2 Give a portion to seven, or even to eight,
for you know not what evil may happen on earth.
11 3 If the clouds are full of rain, they empty themselves on the earth;
and if a tree falls to the south or to the north,
in the place where the tree falls, there it will lie.
11 4 He who observes the wind will not sow;
and he who regards the clouds will not reap.

11 5 As you do not know how the spirit comes to the bones in the womb of a woman with child, so you do not know the work of God who makes everything. 11 6 In the morning sow your seed, and at evening withhold not your hand; for you do not know which will prosper, this or that, or whether both alike will be good.

11 7 Light is sweet, and it is pleasant for the eyes to behold the sun.

11 8 For if a man lives many years, let him rejoice in them all; but let him remember that the days of darkness will be many. All that comes is vanity.
