PROVERBS 10:29 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“The way of the Lord is strength to the upright: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.”
Strength and destruction: The way of the LORD is a refuge for the blameless, but it is the ruin of those who do evil. The way of the LORD (derekh YHWH) provides 'refuge' (matsnah) for the blameless (tamim). For evildoers (ashe re'a), it becomes 'ruin' (meshchat). The same divine order that protects the righteous destroys the wicked. Wisdom consists in aligning with God's way; folly consists in opposing it.
