Proverbs 10:22
The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, And he addeth no sorrow with it.
In context
19 In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: But he that refraineth his lips is wise. 20 The tongue of the just is as choice silver: The heart of the wicked is little worth.
21 The lips of the righteous feed many: But fools die for want of wisdom. 22 The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, And he addeth no sorrow with it. 23 It is as sport to a fool to do mischief: But a man of understanding hath wisdom. 24 The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him: But the desire of the righteous shall be granted.
25 As the whirlwind passeth, so is the wicked no more: But the righteous is an everlasting foundation.
