Commentary for Proverbs 11:29
עוֹכֵ֣ר בֵּ֭יתוֹ יִנְחַל־ר֑וּחַ וְעֶ֥בֶד אֱ֝וִ֗יל לַחֲכַם־לֵֽב׃
He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind; And the foolish shall be servant to the wise of heart.
Rashi on Proverbs
He who inherits the wind will trouble his household A lazy man, who always inherits the wind and does not toil in Torah or in work, will ultimately trouble the members of his household, for they will have nothing to eat.
