Proverbs 28:18 - Forerunner Commentary

Proverbs 28:18

16 A ruler who lacks understanding is a great ^aoppressor,
But he who hates covetousness will prolong his days.

17 ^aA man burdened with bloodshed will flee into a pit;
Let no one help him.

18 Whoever walks blamelessly will be¹ saved,
But he who is perverse in his ways will suddenly fall.

19 ^aHe who tills his land will have plenty of bread,
But he who follows frivolity will have poverty enough!

20 A faithful man will abound with blessings,
^aBut he who hastens to be rich will not go unpunished.
