Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²⁹ He who troubles his own house shall inherit the wind, and the foolish shall be servant to the wise of heart.

³⁰ The fruit of the [uncompromisingly] righteous is a tree of life, and he who is wise captures human lives [for God, as a fisher of men—he gathers and receives them for eternity].^(A)
