PROVERBS 11:23 — KING JAMES VERSION 0
“The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation of the wicked is wrath.”
Desires: The desire of the righteous ends only in good, but the hope of the wicked only in wrath. The righteous person's desire (ta'avat tzaddiq) leads to good (ach tov). The wicked person's hope (siqvat reshayim) ends in wrath (af). Their fundamental trajectories differ.
