1 Kings 2:40

And Shimei stood up and saddled his ass and gat him to Gath to Achish, to seek his servants, and came and brought them again from Gath.

The covetous man rooteth up his own house; but whoso hateth rewards, shall live.

Wherefore he said unto them, "Take heed, and beware of covetousness. For no man's life standeth in the abundance of the things which he possesseth."

For covetousness is the root of all evil, which while some lusted after, they erred from the faith, and tangled themselves with many sorrows.
