Proverbs 23:11 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 23:11

For their Redeemer [is] mighty
As he must needs be, since the Lord of hosts is his name; who sympathizes with them, has mercy on them, is their father, and their friend; see ( Jeremiah 50:34 ) ( Hosea 14:3 ) ( Psalms 68:5 ) ; he shall plead their cause with thee;
or "against thee", as the Vulgate Latin version; and will certainly carry it for them, and against thee; for, when he undertakes a cause, he pleads it thoroughly.

Proverbs 23:11 In-Context

9 Don't speak in the ears of fools, for they will scorn your insightful words.
10 Don't remove an ancient boundary marker; don't invade the fields of orphans,
11 for their redeemer is strong. He will bring charges against you.
12 Bring your mind to instruction, your ear to knowledgeable sayings.
13 Don't withhold instruction from children; if you strike them with a rod, they won't die.
