29 He that troubleth his own house shall inherit wind; and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart.
(Read Proverbs 11:29)
He that brings trouble upon himself and his family, by carelessness, or by wickedness, shall be unable to keep and enjoy what he gets, as a man is unable to hold the wind, or to satisfy himself with it.
