SCRIPTURE

"A faithful man shall abound with blessings; But he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be unpunished." — Proverbs 28:20 (ASV)

A faithful man, who is true to God and man, shall abound with blessings from God and man. Compare Job’s description of his own blameless life and the blessings attending it (Job 29).
