Mishle 19:9 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 19:9

A false witness shall not be unpunished
(See Gill on Proverbs 19:5); and [he that] speaketh lies shall perish;
or "be lost", shall be undone for ever; he shall not enter into the holy city, but have his part in the lake of fire: they that speak lies in hypocrisy, doctrinal ones, and are given up to believe and profess them, such shall be damned, ( 2 Thessalonians 2:11 2 Thessalonians 2:12 ) .

8 He that getteth lev [of understanding] loveth his own nefesh; he that is shomer over tevunah (understanding) shall find tov.

9 An ed shekarim (false witness) shall not go unpunished, and he that speaketh kezavim (lies) shall perish.

10 Luxury is not fitting for a kesil (fool); much less for an eved to have rule over sarim.

11 The seichel adam deferreth his anger, and it is his tiferet (glory) to pass over a peysha (transgression).
