Proverbs 11:24-29

English Standard Version

^24 (A)One gives ^(B)freely, yet grows all the richer;
    another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want.
^25 (C)Whoever brings blessing ^(D)will be enriched,
    and ^(E)one who waters will himself be watered.
^26 (F)The people curse him who holds back grain,
    but ^(G)a blessing is on the head of him who ^(H)sells it.
²⁷ Whoever diligently seeks good seeks favor,^[a]
    but evil comes to ^(I)him who searches for it.
²⁸ Whoever ^(J)trusts in his riches will fall,
    but the righteous will ^(K)flourish like a green leaf.
²⁹ Whoever ^(L)troubles his own household will ^(M)inherit the wind,
    and the fool will be servant to the wise of heart.
