Proverbs 21:26
King James VersionSource notes
“He coveteth greedily all the day long: but the righteous giveth and spareth not.”
Context
23Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.
24Proud haughty scorner his name, who dealeth in proud wrath.
25The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labour.
26He coveteth greedily all the day long: but the righteous giveth and spareth not.
27The sacrifice of the wicked abomination: how much more, he bringeth it with a wicked mind?
28A false witness shall perish: but the man that heareth speaketh constantly.
29A wicked man hardeneth his face: but the upright, he directeth his way.
