Ecclesiasticus 14:8 Context
6There is none worse then he that enuieth himselfe; and this is a recompence of his wickednesse. 7And if he doth good, he doth it vnwillingly, and at the last he will declare his wickednesse. 8The enuious man hath a wicked eye, he turneth away his face and despiseth men. 9A couetous mans eye is not satisfied with his portion, and the iniquity of the wicked dryeth vp his soule. 10A wicked eye enuieth [his] bread, and he is a niggard at his table.
