“"The curse of the Lord is on the house of the wicked," etc. According to the example of the rich man clothed in purple, who in this life lacked spiritual goods, and in the future came to such poverty that he sought a drop of water from the finger of the once poor Lazarus and did not deserve to receive it (Luke 16).”
Bede, 8th c. — Commentary on Proverbs
