Proverbs 11:27-29

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁷ Well doth he rise early who seeketh good things; but he that seeketh after evil things shall be oppressed by them.

²⁸ He that trusteth in his riches shall fall: but the just shall spring up as a green leaf.

²⁹ He that troubleth his own house, shall inherit the winds: and the fool shall serve the wise.
