Proverbs 11:26-31 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

26. People will curse anyone who hoards grain,but a blessing will come to the one who sells it.

27. The one who searches for what is good finds favor,but if someone looks for trouble, it will come to him.

28. Anyone trusting in his riches will fall, but the righteous will flourish like foliage.

29. The one who brings ruin on his household will inherit the wind, and a fool will be a slaveto someone whose heart is wise.

30. The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, but violence takes lives.

31. If the righteous will be repaid on earth,how much more the wicked and sinful.
