Proverbios 28:18

18 El que camina en integridad, será salvo; mas el de perversos caminos caerá en alguno

Proverbios 28:18 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 28:18

Whoso walketh uprightly shall be saved,
Or "be safe" F18 from those that seek his life, plot against him, shoot at him, as the wicked do at the upright in heart, but the Lord protects him; and it is even well with him in times of public calamities; the Lord has his chambers and hiding places for him; and he is safe from falling, as may be gathered from the opposite clause; for he walks surely, and is in the hands of Christ, and is kept by him from a final and total falling away: and he shall be saved also with an everlasting salvation; from sin, and all the effects of it; from the curse of the law, from wrath to come, from hell and damnation. Not that his upright walk is the cause of this; the moving cause of salvation is the grace of God; the procuring cause, our Lord Jesus Christ, the only Author of it: but this is a descriptive character of the persons that are and shall be saved; it is a clear case that such have the grace of God, and therefore shall have glory; (See Gill on Proverbs 10:9); but [he that is] perverse [in his] ways;
"in his two ways", as in ( Proverbs 27:6 ) ; or many ways, and all perverse and wicked: shall fall at once;
his destruction shall come suddenly upon him, when he is not aware of it, and when he cries, Peace, peace, to himself: or in one of them; in one or other of his perverse ways.

Proverbios 28:18 In-Context

16 El príncipe falto de inteligencia multiplicará los agravios; mas el que aborrece la avaricia, prolongará sus días
17 El hombre que hace violencia con sangre de persona, huirá hasta el sepulcro, y nadie le sustentará
18 El que camina en integridad, será salvo; mas el de perversos caminos caerá en alguno
19 El que labra su tierra, se saciará de pan; mas el que sigue a los ociosos, se llenará de pobreza
20 El hombre de la verdad tendrá muchas bendiciones; mas el que se apresura a enriquecer, no será absuelto
