Proverbs 21:12 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

The righteous man wisely considereth the house of the wicked. — Rather, A Righteous one (God) marks the house of the wicked and overthroweth the wicked for (their) destruction. He watches the evil to see whether they will repent (Luke 13:8), and if they will not, at last overthrows them when their iniquity has become full (Genesis 15:16).
