Proverbs 12:21 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

No evil; either,

1. Of sin; or rather,

2. Of suffering or mischief, as the next clause explains this. No such evil shall befall them as doth commonly befall the wicked, who are filled, or overwhelmed, and utterly destroyed by it; whereas good men are supported under their troubles, and shall be delivered out of them, and receive much benefit by them.

Proverbs 12:21

21 There shall no evil happen to the just: but the wicked shall be filled with mischief.
