Proverbs 11:24-31

One person gives freely, yet gains even more;
another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty.

A generous person will prosper;
whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.

People curse the one who hoards grain,
but they pray God’s blessing on the one who is willing to sell.

Whoever seeks good finds favor,
but evil comes to one who searches for it.

Those who trust in their riches will fall,
but the righteous will thrive like a green leaf.

Whoever brings ruin on their family will inherit only wind,
and the fool will be servant to the wise.

The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life,
and the one who is wise saves lives.

If the righteous receive their due on earth,
how much more the ungodly and the sinner!
