Proverbs 28:26 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

He that trusteth in his own heart In his own wisdom and counsels, his own strength and sufficiency, his own merit and righteousness, or the good opinion he hath of his own abilities, natural or acquired, neglecting or slighting the advice of others, or the counsel of God; is a fool And shall receive the reward of his folly, namely, destruction. But whose walketh wisely Distrusting his own judgment, and seeking the advice of others, and especially of God, as all truly wise men do; he shall be delivered From those dangers and mischiefs which fools bring upon themselves; whereby he shows himself to be a wise man.
