PROVERBS 30:29 — KING JAMES VERSION 0
“There be three things which go well, yea, four are comely in going:”
I have seen a most wicked schemer prevail over a person more righteous than he. Do not be overwise, do not be overly righteous. Why destroy yourself?—a realistic observation about the wicked's temporary advantage over the righteous, warning against excessive self-righteousness. The theological significance involves the principle of the wisdom to avoid self-destruction through pride.
