Proverbs 24:1

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Be not thou envious against evil men, neither desire to be with them.

Fret not thyself because of evil-doers; Neither be thou envious at the wicked:

Envy thou not the man of violence, And choose none of his ways.

Let not thy heart envy sinners; But be thou in the fear of Jehovah all the day long:

Fret not thyself because of evil-doers, Neither be thou envious against them that work unrighteousness.

For I was envious at the arrogant, When I saw the prosperity of the wicked.

Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these : fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

Or think ye that the scripture speaketh in vain? Doth the spirit which he made to dwell in us long unto envying?
