Ecclesiastes 11:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

² Share your things with several other people.
You do not know when trouble will come.
    Then those people can help you.
³ When clouds are full of water,
    rain will fall on the earth.
If a tree falls to the ground,
    it will stay there, in the same place.
⁴ A farmer who waits for the right wind
    will never plant any seeds.
If he is always looking at the clouds,
    he will never bring in his crops.
