Proverbs 13:22 A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just. When the renowned Admiral Haddock was dying he begged to see his son, to whom he thus delivered himself — "Notwithstanding my rank in life and public services for so many years, I shall leave you only a small fortune; but, my dear boy, it is honestly got, and will wear well; there are no seamen's wages or provisions in it, nor is there one single penny of dirty money." Parallel Verses KJV: A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just. |
