Cast your
bread upon the waters ,
for after many days you
will
find
it
again
.
Cast thy
bread upon the waters ;
for thou
shalt
find
it
after many days.
Divide
your
portion among
seven, or
even eight ,
for you
do
not know
what disaster
may
befall
the land
.
Give
a
portion to
seven, yea,
even unto
eight ;
for thou
knowest
not what evil
shall
be
upon
the earth
.
If the clouds are
full, they will
pour
out
rain
upon the earth; whether
a tree falls
to
the south or to
the north, in the place where it
falls
, there it will
lie
.
If the clouds be
full of
rain
, they empty
themselves
upon the earth; and
if
a tree fall
toward
the south ,
or toward
the north, in the place where the
tree
falleth
, there shall
it be
.
He who
watches
the wind will
fail
to
sow ,
and he who
observes
the clouds will
fail
to
reap.
He that
observeth
the wind shall
not
sow ;
and he that
regardeth
the clouds shall
not
reap.
As you
do
not know
the path
of the wind, or
how the bones are
formed
in a
mother’s
womb ,
so you
cannot
understand
the work of God ,
the
Maker
of
all things
.
As thou
knowest
not what
is
the way
of the wind, `nor'
how the bones `do
grow'
in the
womb of
her
that
is
with
child;
even
so thou
knowest
not
the work of God who
doeth
all.
Sow
your
seed
in the morning, and do
not
rest
your
hands
in the evening ,
for you
do
not know
which will
succeed
, whether this or that, or if
both will
equally
prosper
.
In the morning sow
thy
seed
, and in the evening withhold
not
thy
hand;
for thou
knowest
not which shall
prosper
, whether this or that, or whether
they
both shall
be
alike
good
.
Light is sweet, and it pleases
the eyes to see
the sun.
Truly
the
light is sweet, and a
pleasant
thing
it is
for
the eyes to behold
the sun.
So
if a man lives
many years, let him rejoice in them all .
But let him remember the days of darkness, for they will
be many. Everything
to
come
is futile
.
Yea,
if a man live
many years, let him rejoice in them all ;
but let him remember the days of darkness, for they shall
be many. All
that
cometh
is vanity
.
Rejoice, O young man, while
you
are
young
, and let your
heart be
glad
in the days of your
youth .
Walk in the ways of your
heart and in the sight of your
eyes ,
but know that for all these things God will bring you
to
judgment.
Rejoice, O young man, in
thy
youth
, and let thy
heart cheer
thee
in the days of thy
youth ,
and
walk in the ways of thy
heart ,
and in the sight of thine
eyes ;
but know thou,
that for all these things God will bring thee
into
judgment.
So
banish
sorrow from your
heart, and cast
off
pain
from your
body,
for youth and vigor
are fleeting
.
Therefore
remove
sorrow from thy
heart, and put
away
evil
from thy
flesh;
for youth and the
dawn
of
life
are vanity
.
