Proverbios 10:25-32

25 Cuando pasa el torbellino, ya no existe el impío, pero el justo tiene cimiento eterno.

26 Como el vinagre a los dientes y el humo a los ojos, así es el perezoso para quienes lo envían.

27 El temor del SEÑOR multiplica los días, mas los años de los impíos serán acortados.

28 La esperanza de los justos es alegría, pero la expectación de los impíos perecerá.

29 Fortaleza para el íntegro es el camino del SEÑOR, pero ruina para los que obran iniquidad.

30 El justo nunca será conmovido, mas los impíos no habitarán en la tierra.

31 La boca del justo emite sabiduría, pero la lengua perversa será cortada.

32 Los labios del justo dan a conocer lo agradable, pero la boca de los impíos, lo perverso.

Proverbios 10:25-32 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.
