Proverbs 26:10 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

The word “God” is not in the original, and the adjective translated “great” is never used elsewhere absolutely in that sense. The simplest and best interpretation is: As the archer that woundeth everyone, so is he who hireth the fool, and he who hireth every passerby. Acting at random, entrusting matters of grave moment to men of bad repute, is as likely to do mischief as to shoot arrows at everyone.

Proverbs 26:10

10 The greatd God that formed all things both rewardeth the fool, and rewardeth transgressors.
