Proverbs 11:27

The Scriptures 2009

He who earnestly seeks good, Seeks what is pleasing; But to him who seeks evil, It comes to him.

See the chapter Copy

And they hanged Haman on the wooden structure that he had prepared for Mordeḵai, and the sovereign’s wrath abated.

In arrogance the wrongdoer hotly pursues the poor; They are caught by the schemes which they devised.

They have prepared a net for my footsteps; My being was bowed down; They have dug a pit before me; They fell into the midst of it! Selah.

An evil one seeks only rebellion, So a cruel messenger is sent against him.

He who has a good eye is blessed, For he gives of his bread to the poor.
