Proverbs 11:27-29
Authorized (King James) Version
27 He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour:
but he that seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him.
28 He that trusteth in his riches shall fall:
but the righteous shall flourish as a branch.
29 He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind:
and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart.
Proverbs 11:27-29

but evil comes to one who searches for it.(A)
28 Those who trust in their riches will fall,(B)
but the righteous will thrive like a green leaf.(C)
29 Whoever brings ruin on their family will inherit only wind,
and the fool will be servant to the wise.(D)
