Proverbs - ch 11 v 21 - 31

  1. Hand to hand, the wicked is not acquitted, And the seed of the righteous hath escaped.
  2. A ring of gold in the nose of a sow -- A fair woman and stubborn of behaviour.
  3. The desire of the righteous `is' only good, The hope of the wicked `is' transgression.
  4. There is who is scattering, and yet is increased, And who is keeping back from uprightness, only to want.
  5. A liberal soul is made fat, And whoso is watering, he also is watered.
  6. Whoso is withholding corn, the people execrate him, And a blessing `is' for the head of him who is selling.
  7. Whoso is earnestly seeking good Seeketh a pleasing thing, And whoso is seeking evil -- it meeteth him.
  8. Whoso is confident in his wealth he falleth, And as a leaf, the righteous flourish.
  9. Whoso is troubling his own house inheriteth wind, And a servant `is' the fool to the wise of heart.
  10. The fruit of the righteous `is' a tree of life, And whoso is taking souls `is' wise.
  11. Lo, the righteous in the earth is recompensed, Surely also the wicked and the sinner!
