Proverbs 11:24-26
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
24 Some give freely yet grow all the richer;
others withhold what is due and only suffer want.(A)
25 A generous person will be enriched,
and one who gives water will get water.(B)
26 The people curse those who hold back grain,
but a blessing is on the head of those who sell it.(C)
Proverbs 11:24-26
International Standard Version
24 Those who give freely gain even more;
others hold back what they owe, becoming even poorer.
25 A generous person will prosper,
and anyone who gives water will receive a flood in return.
26 People will curse whoever withholds grain,
but blessing will come to whoever is selling.
