Proverbes 21:24 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 21:24

Proud [and] haughty scorner [is] his name
He shall be called a proud fool, a haughty fellow, a scornful blockhead; he shall get himself an ill name, and be treated with contempt; who dealeth in proud wrath;
whose pride shows itself in wrathful expressions and actions; who is proud and passionate in all his dealings with men, and who as it were makes a trade of pride and passion: to none is this character more applicable than to antichrist, the man of sin, that sits in the seat of the scornful; exalts himself above all that is called God, has a mouth speaking blasphemies, and a look more stout than his fellows, and deals in proud wrath against the saints of the most High.

Proverbes 21:24 In-Context

22 Le sage monte dans la ville des héros, Et il abat la force qui lui donnait de l'assurance.

23 Celui qui veille sur sa bouche et sur sa langue Préserve son âme des angoisses.

24 L'orgueilleux, le hautain, s'appelle un moqueur; Il agit avec la fureur de l'arrogance.

25 Les désirs du paresseux le tuent, Parce que ses mains refusent de travailler;

26 Tout le jour il éprouve des désirs; Mais le juste donne sans parcimonie.
