Psalms 37:37 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

For the end of that man is peace. — This is quite wrongly translated, since acharîth must here mean, as in Psalms 109:13; Amos 4:2; Amos 9:1, “posterity.” The parallelism decides in favour of this.

Mark the honest man, and behold the upright;
For a posterity (shall be) to the man of peace:
But transgressors are altogether destroyed,
The posterity of the wicked is destroyed.

So the LXX. and Vulg.

Psalms 37:37

37 Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace.
