Proverbs 12:10-12
International Standard Version
10 The righteous person looks out for the welfare of his livestock,
but even[a] the compassion of the wicked is cruel.
11 Whoever tills his soil will have a lot to eat,
but anyone who pursues fantasies lacks sense.[b]
12 The wicked desires what evil people gain,
but the foundation[c] of the righteous is productive.
