Psalms 37:16 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

A little. — A natural reflection, when it is remembered that great riches bring corresponding cares (Proverbs 15:16), and often lead to ruinous indulgence and luxury (Proverbs 13:25; Job 20:12.) Besides, the contentment which is often enjoyed in virtuous poverty seldom dwells with the mammon of unrighteousness.

Psalms 37:16

16 A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked.
