righteousness delivereth from death.
(a) That is, wickedly gotten.
10:3 The LORD will b not allow the soul of the righteous to
famish: but he casteth away the substance of the wicked.
(b) Though he permits the just to want for a time, yet he
will send him comfort in due season.
10:6 Blessings [are] upon the head of the just: but violence
covereth the mouth of c the wicked.
(c) When their wickedness is discovered, they will be as
dumb and not know what to say.
10:7 The memory of the just [is] blessed: but the name of the
wicked shall d perish.
(d) Shall be vile and abhorred both by God and man,
contrary to their own expectation, who think to make
their name immortal.
10:10 He that e winketh with the eye causeth sorrow: but a
f prating fool shall fall.
(e) That bears a fair countenance and imagines mischief in
his heart, as in (Pr 6:13).
(f) For the corruption of his heart is known by his talk.
10:13 In the lips of him that hath understanding wisdom is
found: but g a rod [is] for the back of him that is void
of understanding.
(g) That is, God will find him out to punish him.
10:15 The rich man's wealth [is] his h strong city: the
destruction of the poor [is] their poverty.
(h) And so makes him bold to do evil, while poverty
bridles the poor from many evil things.
10:21 The lips of the righteous i feed many: but fools die for
lack of wisdom.
(i) For they speak truth and edify many by exhortations,
admonition and counsel.
10:22 The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth
k no sorrow with it.
(k) Meaning that all worldly things bring care and sorrow,
where as they who feel the blessings of God have none.
10:26 As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so [is]
the sluggard to them that l send him.
(l) He is trouble and grief to him about any business.
10:27 The fear of the LORD prolongeth days: but the years of the
wicked m shall be shortened.
(m) The time of their prosperity will be short because of
their great fall, though they seem to live long.
10:30 The righteous shall n never be removed: but the wicked
shall not inhabit the earth.
(n) They enjoy in this life by faith and hope, their
everlasting life.
