Proverbs 11:27

Modern English Version

He who diligently seeks good procures favor, but to him who seeks mischief, evil will come.

See the chapter Copy

Then the king said, “Hang him on it!” So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king’s wrath was pacified.

In arrogance the wicked persecutes the poor; let them be caught in the devices they have planned.

They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down; they have dug a pit before me, but they have fallen into it themselves. Selah

An evil man seeks only rebellion; so a fierce messenger will be sent against him.

He who has a generous eye will be blessed, for he gives of his bread to the poor.
