1Send forth thy bread upon the face of the water: For thou shalt find it after many days.
— Ecclesiastes 11:2 —
3If the clouds be filled with rain, They pour it out upon the earth: And if a tree fall southward, or if it fall northward, In the place where the tree shall fall, there it shall be.
4He that observes the wind sows not; And he that looks at the clouds will not reap.
