Proverbs 10:3
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
3 The Lord does not let the just go hungry,
but the craving of the wicked he thwarts.[a]
Footnotes
- 10:3 The last of the three introductory sayings in the collection, which emphasize, respectively, the sapiential (v. 1), ethical (v. 2), and religious (v. 3) dimensions of wisdom. In this saying, God will not allow the appetite of the righteous to go unfulfilled. The appetite of hunger is singled out; it stands for all the appetites.
