Proverbs 11:24 - Forerunner Commentary

Proverbs 11:24

22 As a ring of gold in a swine’s snout,
So is a lovely woman who lacks¹ discretion.

23 The desire of the righteous is only good,
But the expectation of the wicked ^ais wrath.

24 There is one who ^ascatters, yet increases more;
And there is one who withholds more than is right,
But it leads to poverty.

25 ^aThe generous soul will be made rich,
^bAnd he who waters will also be watered himself.

26 The people will curse ^ahim who withholds grain,
But ^bblessing will be on the head of him who sells it.

27 He who earnestly seeks good¹ finds favor,
^aBut trouble will come to him who seeks evil.
