Exegesis
Its verb yigareh {יְגָרֶ֣ה | yə-ḡā-rēh} signals ongoing action, taking its subject from the preceding noun and leading to the direct object madon {מָדוֹן | mā-ḏōn} ‘strife’ in a prototypical subject–verb–object sequence.
In context — Proverbs 28:25
A person of greedy desire stirs up strife, but the one who trusts in the LORD will be enriched.
