Proverbs 13:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible

11 The [a]riches of vanity shall diminish: but he that gathereth with [b]the hand, shall increase them.

12 The hope that is deferred, is the fainting of the heart, but when the desire cometh, it is as a tree of life.

13 He that despiseth [c]the word, he shall be destroyed, but he that feareth the commandment, he shall be rewarded.
