27 Whoever diligently seeks good seeks favor,[a]
    but evil comes to (A)him who searches for it.
28 Whoever (B)trusts in his riches will fall,
    but the righteous will (C)flourish like a green leaf.
29 Whoever (D)troubles his own household will (E)inherit the wind,
    and the fool will be servant to the wise of heart.
