It means that if you maintain and put effort into something, it will pay you back. This applies to the "shop" that Franklin used, but also to other things in life.
what i think it means is that if you keep responsibility for your actions or posessions, you will be paid back when needed. It might also mean this. Ifyou help someone, or "throw someone a lifeline", they will eventually pay you back when needed.

Thou shalt have no other gods before Me. 3 Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image, nor any manner of likeness, of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; 4 thou shalt not bow down unto them, nor serve them; for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate Me; 5 and showing mercy unto the thousandth generation of them that love Me and keep My commandments. {S} 6 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh His name in vain. {P}7 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 8 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work; 9 but the seventh day is a sabbath unto the LORD thy God, in it thou shalt not do any manner of work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; 10 for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested on the seventh day; wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. {S} 11 Honour thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. {S} 12 Thou shalt not murder. {S} Thou shalt not commit adultery. {S} Thou shalt not steal. {S} Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour. {S} 13 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house; {S} thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his man-servant, nor his maid-servant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's. {P}

What are the two sentences of Ruth to her mother-in-law that have made her memorable throughout history?
Ruth 1:16 from the 21st Century King James Version--16And Ruth said: "Entreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee; for whither thou goest, I will go, and where thou lodgest, I will lodge. Thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God..."These verses are often used in wedding vows, which is cool, but they were said from a daughter-in-law to her mother-in-law. Not many would say these words to members of their own families much more to in-laws. That's what really makes this passage so moving to me.

Do thee thy and tho all mean the same thing?
No. "Thee" and "thy" are pronouns, corresponding to the singular form of you (accusitive case) and your. Although they are obsolete in common speech, they still appear regularly in song lyrics, devotional materials, poetry, and elsewhere. Both appear in the Canadian National Anthem "O Canada" and "thee" in the American Patriotic song "My Country 'Tis of Thee". In popular culture, Darth Vader says to the Emperor, "What is thy bidding, my master?" "Tho" is an abbreviated form of the conjunction "although" and is slang. It is not even remotely related to "thee" or "thy".
