Proverbs 11:22-24
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
22 Like a golden ring in a swine’s snout
is a beautiful woman without judgment.[a]
23 The desire of the just ends only in good;
the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
24 One person is lavish yet grows still richer;
another is too sparing, yet is the poorer.[b]
