Proverbs 10:16 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

The labour of the righteous tendeth to life: the fruit of the wicked to sin. The labor of the righteous - The good man labors that he may be able to support life; this is his first object: and then to have something to divide with the poor; this is his next object.

The fruit of the wicked to sin - This man lives to eat and drink, and his property he spends in riot and excess. God's blessings are cursed to him.

Proverbs 10:16

16 The labour of the righteous tendeth to life: the fruit of the wicked to sin.
