Ecclesiastes
Chapter 11
1 Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many
days.
2 Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for thou knowest not
what evil shall be upon the earth.
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.
4 He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth
the clouds shall not reap.
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.
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.
7 Truly the light is sweet, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes
to behold the sun:
8 But if a man live many years, and rejoice in them all; yet let
him remember the days of darkness; for they shall be many. All that
cometh is vanity.
9 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 thine heart, and in
the sight of thine eyes: but know thou, that for all these things God
will bring thee into judgment.
10 Therefore remove sorrow from thy heart, and put away evil from
thy flesh: for childhood and youth are vanity.
