25 A liberal soul is made fat, || And whoever is watering, he also is watered. 26 Whoever is withholding grain, the people execrate him, || And a blessing [is] for the head of him who is selling. 27 Whoever is earnestly seeking good || Seeks a pleasing thing, || And whoever is seeking evil—it meets him. 28 Whoever is confident in his wealth falls, || And as a leaf, the righteous flourish. 29 Whoever is troubling his own house inherits wind, || And the fool [is] a servant to the wise of heart. 30 The fruit of the righteous [is] a tree of life, || And whoever is taking souls [is] wise. 31 Behold, the righteous is repaid in the earth, || Surely also the wicked and the sinner!
