Proverbs 11:22-27

1. 22 As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion.

2. 23 The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation of the wicked is wrath.

3. 24 There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.

4. 25 The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.

5. 26 He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him: but blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth it.

6. 27 He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but he that seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him.
