Bread gained by deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.
All Commentaries on Proverbs 20:17 Go To Proverbs 20
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Lying. Deceit, and unlawful pleasures, chap. ix. 17. But God mingles disgust with them, and will punish the guilty, at least hereafter. Worldly enjoyments seem sweet, but they are full of gravel, and hurtful.
