Proverbs 11:11 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

By the blessing of the upright, where with they bless the city, to wit, by their sincere prayers, and wise and wholesome counsels. By the mouth of the wicked; by their curses, and oaths, and blasphemies, and wicked and pernicious counsels, whereby they both provoke God, and mislead men to their own ruin.

Proverbs 11:11

11 By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted: but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
