PROVERBS 28:22 — KING JAMES VERSION 0
“He that hasteth to be rich hath an evil eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him.”
The stingy are eager to get rich and are unaware that poverty awaits them—a statement that greed produces its own trap, establishing that those who love money become prisoners of wanting. The theological significance involves the principle of the self-defeating nature of avarice.
