Proverbs 11:29 - The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann

Bible Comments

v. 29. He that troubleth his own house, his avarice causing him to withhold from the members of his household their earnings or their rightful keep, shall inherit the wind, gain nothing and come to nothing; and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart, the very same miser who treated his household so niggardly coming to such straits that he is a servant to one who was not guilty of the same foolishness.

Proverbs 11:29

29 He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart.
