Proverbs 11:27

Presbyterian
SCRIPTURE

"He that diligently seeketh good seeketh favor; But he that searcheth after evil, it shall come unto him." — Proverbs 11:27 (ASV)

Procureth - Better, strives after. He who desires good, absolutely, for its own sake, is also unconsciously striving after the favor which attends goodness.
