Ecclesiastes 11:1-3

Revised Standard Version

11 Cast your bread upon the waters,
for you will find it after many days.
² Give a portion to seven, or even to eight,
    for you know not what evil may happen on earth.
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.
