PROVERBS 11:29 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart.”
Family trouble: Whoever brings ruin on their family will inherit only wind, and the fool will be servant to the wise. Ruining the family (otzer beyto) results in inheriting wind—nothing of value. The fool (kesil) becomes servant to the wise (eved la'chacham). Familial betrayal results in powerlessness.
