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.

9 in auribus insipientium ne loquaris quia despicient doctrinam eloquii tui
10 ne adtingas terminos parvulorum et agrum pupillorum ne introeas
11 propinquus enim eorum Fortis est et ipse iudicabit contra te causam illorum
12 ingrediatur ad doctrinam cor tuum et aures tuae ad verba scientiae
13 noli subtrahere a puero disciplinam si enim percusseris eum virga non morietur
