Proverbs 10:22-24
Contemporary English Version

22 When the Lord blesses you
with riches,
    you have nothing to regret.[a]
23 Fools enjoy doing wrong,
but anyone with good sense
    enjoys acting wisely.
24 What evil people dread most
    will happen to them,
but good people will get
    what they want most.
