26 Some people are always greedy for more, but the godly love to give!

Matthew Henry's Commentary on Proverbs 21:26

Commentary on Proverbs 21:25-26

(Read Proverbs 21:25-26)

Here is the misery of the slothful; their hands refuse to labour in an honest calling, by which they might get an honest livelihood; yet their hearts cease not to covet riches, pleasures, and honours, which cannot be obtained without labour. But the righteous and industrious have their desires satisfied.
