Proverbs 11:27-31 American Standard Version (ASV)

27. He that diligently seeketh good seeketh favor; But he that searcheth after evil, it shall come unto him.

28. He that trusteth in his riches shall fall; But the righteous shall flourish as the green leaf.

29. He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind; And the foolish shall be servant to the wise of heart.

30. The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; And he that is wise winneth souls.

31. Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth: How much more the wicked and the sinner!
