Proverbs 11:20-31

Proverbs 11:20-31

[20] They that are of a froward  heart  are abomination  to the LORD:  but such as are upright  in their way  are his delight.  [21] Though hand  the wicked  shall not be unpunished:  but the seed  of the righteous  shall be delivered.  [22] As a jewel  of gold  in a swine's  snout,  so is a fair  woman  which is without  discretion.  [23] The desire  of the righteous  is only good:  but the expectation  of the wicked  is wrath.  [24] There is  that scattereth,  and yet increaseth;  and there is that withholdeth  more than is meet,  but it tendeth to poverty.  [25] The liberal  soul  shall be made fat:  and he that watereth  shall be watered  [26] He that withholdeth  corn,  the people  shall curse  him: but blessing  shall be upon the head  of him that selleth  [27] He that diligently seeketh  good  procureth  favour:  but he that seeketh  mischief,  it shall come  [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.  [30] The fruit  of the righteous  is a tree  of life;  and he that winneth  souls  is wise.  [31] Behold, the righteous  shall be recompensed  in the earth:  much more the wicked  and the sinner.
