Proverbs 11:24
One gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds what is right, only to become poor.
There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.
There is one who scatters, and increases yet more. There is one who withholds more than is appropriate, but gains poverty.
There is that scattereth, and increaseth yet more; And there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth only to want.
