Send your bread upon the face of the water! for in a multitude of days you will find it.
Give a portion to seven, even indeed to eight! for you do not know what evil there will be upon the earth.
If should be filled the clouds of rain, upon the earth they pour out; and if should fall a tree towards the south, or if towards the north, in the place where shall fall the tree there it shall be.
Giving heed to the wind one does not sow, and one looking into the clouds will not harvest.
Among the ones in whom there is no knowing what the way of the wind is , as the bones in the womb of one being with child, so you shall not know the actions of God, as much as he shall do in all things.
At morning sow your seed, and at evening do not relieve your hand! for you do not know what will line up — this here , this there , or if the two together are good
Moreover is sweet the light, and it is good to the eyes to see with the sun.
For even if years many shall live a man, in all them he shall be glad. And shall be remembered the days of darkness, for they will be many. All coming is folly.
Be glad, O young man, in your youth! and let do you good your heart in the days of your youth! And walk in the ways of your heart unblemished, and in the vision of your eyes! And know that in all these shall lead you God in equity!
And leave rage from your heart, and pass off wickedness from your flesh! for youth and thoughtlessness are folly.
