'Inherit the wind' comes from the Bible book of Proverbs, chapter 11 verse 29:
BACKGROUND TO THE BOOK OF PROVERBS
The Bible book of Proverbs was written by King Solomon (See Prov 1:1; 10:1; 25:1) and is a collection of 'wise sayings' i.e. maxims and aphorisms, and 'words of wisdom.'
Some of them may have been Solomon's own proverbs but some he clearly acknowledges as not being his own. (Prov 30:1; 31:1) Solomon also indicated elsewhere (Eccl 11:9,10) that he compiled the proverbs from other sources. Even the format of the book, with a number of proverbs being repeated, would indicate that he may have used other smaller collections of proverbs as his source material. He may also have included many traditional word-of-mouth proverbs that were part of the cultural heritage of the people of his time.
However, doubtless some (or many, or most?) of the proverbs may have been Solomon's own inspired words of wisdom. After all, the expression 'the wisdom of Solomon' (See 1 Kings 4:29-34) is part of the heritage of the English language even now.
PROVERBS 11:29
If Proverbs 11:29 is part of the section of the book which begins with the header "The Proverbs of Solomon", (chapter 10 verse 1) then the words of this verse may be Solomon's own.
CONCLUSION
The maxim: 'Those who bring trouble on their families inherit the wind' is a saying found in Solomon's book of Proverbs. This particular verse may be Solomon's own words or the phrase may have had an earlier written source, or could have been a well known saying among the people. Even so, Solomon was doubtless inspired/moved to record and preserve these words of wisdom in his book of Proverbs, a book that that has been appreciated and passed on from generation to generation.
