Proverbios 14:29-35

29 El que tarde se aíra, es grande de entendimiento; mas el corto de espíritu engrandece la locura.

30 El corazón apacible es vida a la carne; mas la envidia, pudrimiento de huesos.

31 El que oprime al pobre, afrenta a su Hacedor; mas el que tiene misericordia del pobre, lo honra.

32 Por su maldad será lanzado el impío; mas el justo en su muerte tiene esperanza.

33 En el corazón del cuerdo reposará la sabiduría; y es dado a conocer en medio de los locos.

34 La justicia engrandece un pueblo; mas el pecado es afrenta de las naciones.

35 La benevolencia del rey es para con el siervo entendido; mas su enojo contra el que lo avergüenza.

Proverbios 14:29-35 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO FIRST KINGS 4

As in the preceding chapter we have a proof of the wisdom and understanding which the Lord gave to Solomon, as promised, so in this an account is given of the riches and honour he was possessed of; of him, as king over all Israel, and of his princes, 1Ki 4:1-6; of the providers of food for his household in the several parts of the land, 1Ki 4:7-19; of the largeness and extent of his dominions, and of the peace and prosperity thereof, 1Ki 4:20,21,24,25; of his daily provisions for his household and for his cattle, 1Ki 4:22,23,26-28; and of his superior wisdom and knowledge to all others in all nations, which brought some out of all to hear it, 1Ki 4:29-34.
