The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble.
The way of the wicked is as darkness; they know not at what they stumble - (Deuteronomy 28:28-29.) They know not on what peril they may stumble and fall finally. They are in perpetual danger, and know it not, because they are in darkness (John 11:9; John 12:35; cf. Proverbs 4:12 as to the godly, "Thou sheet not stumble"). The converse of Proverbs 4:18 holds good of them, The path of the unjust is one becoming darker and darker, until it ends in the blackness of darkness forever. They seem (to themselves) clear-sighted and wise; yet they are in the gross darkness of ignorance, error, and sin; and they are in continual danger of being dashed down to outer and everlasting darkness.
