Sin that sounds like a shortened state (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

envy

(Other definitions for envy that I've seen before include "Desire as a rival" , "Jealousy, begrudgery" , "Covet; be jealous of" , "Deadly sin; sounds like two letters" , "Begrudge, covet" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
