Commentary for Proverbs 27:20

שְׁא֣וֹל ואבדה [וַ֭אֲבַדּוֹ] לֹ֣א תִשְׂבַּ֑עְנָה וְעֵינֵ֥י הָ֝אָדָ֗ם לֹ֣א תִשְׂבַּֽעְנָה׃

The nether-world and Destruction are never satiated; So the eyes of man are never satiated.

Rashi on Proverbs

The grave and Gehinnom will not be sated from receiving the wicked therein, just as the eyes of a wicked man will not be sated from wandering after temptation and gratifying his lust.
