This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
11:1 The to do of wise
11 Throw your bread out onto the waters
because you’ll find it again in several days.
2 Share it around seven or eight others
because you don’t know when a calamity will hit your area.
3 If the clouds are filled with rain, they’ll pour it out,
and if a tree falls to the north or the south,
wherever it falls, that’s where it’ll be.
4 A person who worries about the wind,
won’t sow any seed,
≈and someone who keeps looking at the clouds,
will never harvest their crop.
5 Just as you don’t know how the winds work,
or how the bones get into a pregnant woman’s womb,
nor do you know how God does everything that he does.
6 Sow your seed in the morning
and don’t stop planting until the evening,
because you don’t know which areas will grow well,
or whether it will all succeed equally.
7 Light is sweet
and it’s good for your eyes to see the sun.
8 Even if a person lives for many years,
they should take pleasure in all of them.
but remember the dark days
because everything that happens is pointless.
11:6 OSHB note: We agree with both BHS 1997 and BHQ on an unexpected reading.
