Proverbs 29:7 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The righteous, whether magistrate, or any private person concerned to know it, and capable of helping him in it, considereth the cause of the poor; his poverty neither hinders him from taking pains to examine it, nor from a righteous determination of it. Regardeth not to know it; will not put himself to the trouble of searching it out, either because it yields him no profit, or because he resolves to give away his right.

Proverbs 29:7

7 The righteous considereth the cause of the poor: but the wicked regardeth not to know it.
