But the godly flourish like leaves in spring.H982H6239H5307H6662H6524H5929 29Those who bring trouble on their families inherit the wind. The fool will be a servant to the wise.H5916H1004H5157H7307H191H5650H2450H3820 30The seeds of good deeds become a tree of life; a wise person wins friends.H6529H6662H6086H2416H3947H5315H2450 31If the righteous are rewarded here on earth, what will happen to wicked sinners?H6662H7999H776H7563H2398
