Ecclesiastes 11:1-3

International Standard Version

11 Spread your bread on the water—
after a while you will find it.
² Apportion what you have into seven, or even eight parts,
    because you don’t know what disaster might befall the land.
³ If the clouds are full of rain,
    they will pour out on the earth;
if a tree falls toward the south or the north,
    wherever it falls, there it will lay.
