NET © [draft] ITL	He who watches <08104> the wind <07307> will not <03808> sow <02232> , and he who observes <07200> the clouds <05645> will not <03808> reap <07114> .

NET © Notes	¹sn This proverb criticizes those who are overly cautious. The farmer who waits for the most opportune moment to plant when there is no wind to blow away the seed, and to reap when there is no rain to ruin a ripe harvest, will never do anything but sit around waiting for the right moment.
