Proverbs 11:31
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
Footnotes
- 11:31 The saying is not about life after death; “on the earth” means life in the present world. The meaning is that divine judgment is exercised on all human action, even the best. The thought should strike terror into the hearts of habitual wrongdoers.
Proverbs 11:31
New International Version
31 If the righteous receive their due(A) on earth,
how much more the ungodly and the sinner!
