Proverbs 10:2 - Forerunner Commentary

Proverbs 10:2

1 The proverbs of ^aSolomon:
^bA wise son makes a glad father,
But a foolish son is the grief of his mother.

2 ^aTreasures of wickedness profit nothing,
^bBut righteousness delivers from death.

3 ^aThe Lord will not allow the righteous soul to famish,
But He casts away the desire of the wicked.

4 ^aHe who has a slack hand becomes poor,
But ^bthe hand of the diligent makes rich.

5 He who gathers in ^asummer is a wise son;
He who sleeps in harvest is ^ba son who causes shame.

6 Blessings are on the head of the righteous,
But violence covers the mouth of the wicked.
