Proverbs 11:27

In context

25A generous soul will be enriched, and whoever gives water will himself be watered. 26Whoever hoards grain, the people curse him, but a blessing is on the head of the one who sells it. 27Whoever seeks good earnestly seeks favor, but whoever searches for evil—it will come to him. 28Whoever trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous will flourish like green leaves. 29Whoever brings trouble on his own house will inherit wind, and the senseless will be servant to the wise in heart.
