'Covetous' in the Bible
A violent and exceedingly covetous man entices his neighbor [to sin],And leads him in a way that is not good.
He who has an evil and envious eye hurries to be richAnd does not know that poverty will come upon him.

until they were filled (permeated, saturated) with every kind of unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice and mean-spiritedness. They are gossips [spreading rumors],
For be sure of this: no immoral, impure, or greedy person—for that one is [in effect] an idolater—has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God [for such a person places a higher value on something other than God].
