Proverbios 10:27-32

27 El temor del Señor
prolonga la vida,
pero los años de los perversos serán truncados.

28 Las esperanzas del justo traen felicidad,
pero las expectativas de los perversos no resultan en nada.

29 El camino del Señor
es una fortaleza para los que andan en integridad,
pero destruye a los que hacen maldad.

30 Los justos nunca serán perturbados,
pero los perversos serán quitados de la tierra.

31 La boca del justo da sabios consejos,
pero la lengua engañosa será cortada.

32 Los labios del justo hablan palabras provechosas,
pero la boca de los malvados habla perversidad.

Proverbios 10:27-32 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO PROVERBS 10

From this chapter to the "twenty fifth" are various proverbial sentences, without any very apparent connection or coherence with each other; describing righteous and wicked men; setting forth their different temper, conduct, and actions, and the fruits and effects of them. It should be observed, that frequently in the preceding chapters two persons are represented as women; one goes by the name of "Wisdom", the other is called the "foolish" woman and a "harlot"; the former is clearly to be understood of Christ; and the latter, being opposed to him, must be antichrist, the whore of Rome, and mother of harlots: now in the following part of this book two sorts of persons are spoken of; the one as wise, righteous, good and the other as foolish, wicked, &c. who are no other than the followers of Christ and antichrist; which observation is a key to the whole book.
