A faithful man will be richly blessed, but one eager to get rich will not go unpunished. |
A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent. |
A faithful man will abound with blessings, But he who makes haste to be rich will not go unpunished. |
Proverbs 28:20 |
