(a) That is, wickedly gotten. 10:3 The LORD will {b} not allow the soul of the righteous to famish: but he casteth away the substance of the wicked. (b) Though he permits the just to want for a time, yet he will send him comfort in due season. 10:6 Blessings [are] upon the head of the just: but violence covereth the mouth of {c} the wicked. (c) When their wickedness is discovered, they will be as dumb and not know what to say. 10:7 The memory of the just [is] blessed: but the name of the wicked shall {d} perish. (d) Shall be vile and abhorred both by God and man, contrary to their own expectation, who think to make their name immortal. 10:10 He that {e} winketh with the eye causeth sorrow: but a {f} prating fool shall fall. (e) That bears a fair countenance and imagines mischief in his heart, as in [Proverbs 6:13](../../../kjv/proverbs/6/13). (f) For the corruption of his heart is known by his talk. 10:13 In the lips of him that hath understanding wisdom is found: but {g} a rod [is] for the back of him that is void of understanding. (g) That is, God will find him out to punish him. 10:15 The rich man’s wealth [is] his {h} strong city: the destruction of the poor [is] their poverty. (h) And so makes him bold to do evil, while poverty bridles the poor from many evil things. 10:21 The lips of the righteous {i} feed many: but fools die for lack of wisdom. (i) For they speak truth and edify many by exhortations, admonition and counsel. 10:22 The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth {k} no sorrow with it. (k) Meaning that all worldly things bring care and sorrow, where as they who feel the blessings of God have none. 10:26 As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so [is] the sluggard to them that {l} send him. (l) He is trouble and grief to him about any business. 10:27 The fear of the LORD prolongeth days: but the years of the wicked {m} shall be shortened. (m) The time of their prosperity will be short because of their great fall, though they seem to live long. 10:30 The righteous shall {n} never be removed: but the wicked shall not inhabit the earth. (n) They enjoy in this life by faith and hope, their everlasting life. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com","name":"Real Bible Believers","description":"RBB","publisher":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/search?q={search_term_string}","query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible/proverbs/10#primaryimage","inLanguage":"en-US","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/images/missing.jpg","contentUrl":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/images/missing.jpg","width":640,"height":370,"caption":"Geneva Study Bible - Proverbs 10"},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible/proverbs/10#webpage","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible/proverbs/10","name":"Geneva Study Bible - Proverbs 10","isPartOf":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/geneva-study-bible/proverbs/10#primaryimage"},"datePublished":null,"dateModified":null,"author":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"description":"10:2 Treasures of {a} wickedness profit nothing: but righteousness delivereth from death.
