Verse
Proverbs - ch 11 v 21 - 31
- Certainly the evil-doer will not go free from punishment, but the seed of the upright man will be safe.
- Like a ring of gold in the nose of a pig, is a beautiful woman who has no sense.
- The desire of the upright man is only for good, but wrath is waiting for the evil-doer.
- A man may give freely, and still his wealth will be increased; and another may keep back more than is right, but only comes to be in need.
- He who gives blessing will be made fat, but the curser will himself be cursed.
- He who keeps back grain will be cursed by the people; but a blessing will be on the head of him who lets them have it for a price.
- He who, with all his heart, goes after what is good is searching for grace; but he who is looking for trouble will get it.
- He who puts his faith in wealth will come to nothing; but the upright man will be full of growth like the green leaf.
- The troubler of his house will have the wind for his heritage, and the foolish will be servant to the wise-hearted.
- The fruit of righteousness is a tree of life, but violent behaviour takes away souls.
- If the upright man is rewarded on earth, how much more the evil-doer and the sinner!
