Proverbs 11:25

The Message

The one who blesses others is abundantly blessed; those who help others are helped.

See the chapter Copy

The world of the generous gets larger and larger; the world of the stingy gets smaller and smaller.

A grasping person stirs up trouble, but trust in God brings a sense of well-being.

Be generous to the poor—you’ll never go hungry; shut your eyes to their needs, and run a gauntlet of curses.

“You’re blessed when you care. At the moment of being ‘care-full,’ you find yourselves cared for.
