Proverbs 11:25

Revised Standard Version (RSV-CI)

A liberal man will be enriched, and one who waters will himself be watered.

See the chapter Copy

“Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.

But he who is noble devises noble things, and by noble things he stands.

He who gives to the poor will not want, but he who hides his eyes will get many a curse.

brought beds, basins, and earthen vessels, wheat, barley, meal, parched grain, beans and lentils,

Honor the Lord with your substance and with the first fruits of all your produce;

then your barns will be filled with plenty, and your vats will be bursting with wine.

One man gives freely, yet grows all the richer; another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want.

A greedy man stirs up strife, but he who trusts in the Lord will be enriched.
