Ecclesiastes 11:2-4

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

² Give a portion to seven, yes, even [divide it] to eight, for you know not what evil may come upon the earth.

³ If the clouds are full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth; and if a tree falls toward the south or toward the north, in the place where the tree falls, there it will lie.

⁴ He who observes the wind [and waits for all conditions to be favorable] will not sow, and he who regards the clouds will not reap.
