Ecclesiastes 11

11
1Cast youi bread upon the waters: for youi shall find it after many days.
2Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for youi know not what evil shall be upon the earth.
3If the clouds be full of rain, they empty [themselves] upon the earth: and if the tree fall to (to do entirely, do wholly) ward (in custody, with a guard; prison) the south, or toward the north, in the place where the tree falls, there it shall be.
4He that observes the wind shall not sow; and he that regards the clouds shall not reap.
5As youi know not what [is] the way of the spirit, [nor] how the bones [do grow] in the womb of her that is with child: even so youi know not the works of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] who makes all.
6In the morning sow youi seed, and in the evening withhold not youi hand: for youi know not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both [shall be] alike good.
7Truly the light [is] sweet, and a pleasant [thing it is] for the eyes to behold the sun:
8But if a man live many years, [and] rejoice in them all; yet let him remember the days of darkness; for they shall be many. All that comes [is] vanity.
9Rejoice, O young man, in youi youth; and let youi heart cheer youi in the days of youi youth, and walk in the ways of youi heart, and in the sight of youi eyes: but know youi, that for all these [things] God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] will bring youi into judgment.
10Therefore remove sorrow from youi heart, and put away evil from youi flesh: for childhood and youth [are] vanity.
