“He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.”
The statement that whoever watches the wind will not sow and whoever observes the clouds will not reap, warns against excessive caution motivated by trying to control contingency. The farmer who waits for perfect conditions will never plant; the field will remain barren. This verse recommends acting despite uncertainty rather than deferring action until conditions become certain (which never happens).
