Proverbs 14:32 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

The wicked is driven away From God's favour and presence, and from the society of the righteous, and from all his hopes of happiness, both in this life and in the next; in his wickedness Or, for his wickedness. The Hebrew, however, ברעת, is literally, in his evil; and may be understood of the evil of punishment: in the day of his trouble, when he shall flee to God for help, he shall be driven away from him. But the righteous hath hope in his death In his greatest dangers and distresses; yea, even in death itself he hath hope of deliverance from, or of great and everlasting advantage by what he suffers.

Proverbs 14:32

32 The wicked is driven away in his wickedness: but the righteous hath hope in his death.
