What does Proverbs 23:17 mean?

Remember that envy is a destructive emotion that caused discontent and resentment, whereas the fear of the Lord brings wisdom, contentment, and peace.

We must therefore guard our hearts against envy and to passionately seek a reverent relationship with God. As we do so, we find true contentment, wisdom, and joy in the Lord while we realize that the temptation of sin is fleeting compared to the eternal richness of walking in God’s ways.
