Proverbs 11:28-30
Lexham English Bible
28 He who trusts in his wealth is he who will fall,
but like a green leaf the righteous will flourish.
29 He who brings trouble to his household, he will inherit wind,[a]
and a fool will serve the wise of heart.
30 The fruit of righteousness is a tree of life,
and he who captures souls[b] is wise.
