Proverbs 11:23
Berean Standard Bible
The desire of the righteous leads only to good, but the hope of the wicked brings wrath.
Context
21Be assured that the wicked will not go unpunished,
but the offspring of the righteous will escape. 22Like a gold ring in a pig’s snout
is a beautiful woman who lacks discretion. 23The desire of the righteous leads only to good,
but the hope of the wicked brings wrath. 24One gives freely, yet gains even more;
another withholds what is right, only to become poor. 25A generous soul will prosper,
and he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed.
