Do what is wise

11 Freely give your things to other people.
If you do that, one day you will receive your things back again.
Share your things with several other people.
You do not know when trouble will come.
    Then those people can help you.
When clouds are full of water,
    rain will fall on the earth.
If a tree falls to the ground,

    they pour rain on the earth.
Whether a tree falls to the south or to the north,
    in the place where it falls, there it will lie.
