Sir 14:8
King James Version
“The envious man hath a wicked eye; he turneth away his face, and despiseth men.”
Context
5He that is evil to himself, to whom will he be good? he shall not take pleasure in his goods.
6There is none worse than he that envieth himself; and this is a recompence of his wickedness.
7And if he doeth good, he doeth it unwillingly; and at the last he will declare his wickedness.
8The envious man hath a wicked eye; he turneth away his face, and despiseth men.
9A covetous man’s eye is not satisfied with his portion; and the iniquity of the wicked drieth up his soul.
10A wicked eye envieth bread, and he is a niggard at his table.
11My son, according to thy ability do good to thyself, and give the Lord his due offering.
