Exegesis
The coordinating conjunction wə-lōʾ yēḏaʿ {וְלֹא־יֵדַע | wə-lōʾ yēḏaʿ} ‘and not he knows’ introduces the dependent clause kî ḥeṣer yᵉbōʾennū {כִּי־חֶסֶר יְבֹאֶנּוּ | kî ḥeṣer yᵉbōʾennū} ‘that poverty will come upon him’. This structure links urgency, greed, ignorance, and inevitable consequence.
In context — Proverbs 28:22
A man who is hasty for wealth is one with an evil eye , and he does not know that poverty will come upon him.
