Proverbs 21:18 - Forerunner Commentary

Proverbs 21:18

16 A man who wanders from the way of understanding
Will rest in the assembly of the ^adead.

17 He who loves pleasure will be a poor man;
He who loves wine and oil will not be rich.

18 The wicked shall be a ransom for the righteous,
And the unfaithful for the upright.

19 Better to dwell¹ in the wilderness,
Than with a contentious and angry woman.

20 ^aThere is desirable treasure,
And oil in the dwelling of the wise,
But a foolish man squanders it.
