Ecclesiastes 11:2-4

The Voice

²     Divide your portion—put seven here, maybe eight there—
        for you can never be sure when or where disaster will strike.
³     When the clouds are dark and heavy with rain,
        showers will fall upon the earth.
    When a tree falls—whether to the south or the north—
        it will stay where it lands.
⁴     Those who watch and wait for favorable winds never plant,
        and those who watch and fret over every cloud never harvest.
