Proverbs 11:28

Proverbs Of Solomon

²⁷
He who diligently seeks good seeks favor and grace,
But he who seeks evil, evil will come to him.
²⁸ 
He who leans on and trusts in and is confident in his riches will fall,
But the righteous [who trust in God’s provision] will flourish like a green leaf.
²⁹
He who troubles (mismanages) his own house will inherit the wind (nothing),
And the foolish will be a servant to the wise-hearted.

Nor stop bearing fruit.
