Proverbs 10:16

The labour of the righteous [tendeth] to life: the fruit of the wicked to sin.

Ver. 16. The labour of the righteous, &c.] If the righteous man may but sweat out a poor living, get enough to bear his charges home to heaven, have enough to serve his turn here, be it but "food and raiment, he is content." 1Ti 6:8 Cibus et potus sunt divitiae Christianorum. The true Christian desires but meat and drink.

The fruit of the wicked.] Or, The revenues of the wicked are wasted upon their lusts, which to seek to satisfy is an endless labour, besides the danger of fathomless perdition. 1Ti 6:4
