Proverbs 11:23-27

English Standard Version

²³ The desire of the righteous ends only in good,
    ^(A)the expectation of the wicked in wrath.
^24 (B)One gives ^(C)freely, yet grows all the richer;
    another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want.
^25 (D)Whoever brings blessing ^(E)will be enriched,
    and ^(F)one who waters will himself be watered.
^26 (G)The people curse him who holds back grain,
    but ^(H)a blessing is on the head of him who ^(I)sells it.
²⁷ Whoever diligently seeks good seeks favor,^[a]
    but evil comes to ^(J)him who searches for it.
