Proverbios 14:30-35

30 El corazón apacible es vida de las carnes: Mas la envidia, pudrimiento de huesos.
31 El que oprime al pobre, afrenta á 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 reposa la sabiduría; Y es conocida en medio de los necios.
34 La justicia engrandece la nación: Mas el pecado es afrenta de las naciones.
35 La benevolencia del rey es para con el ministro entendido: Mas su enojo contra el que lo avergüenza.

Proverbios 14:30-35 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.
