Amsal 10:30

10:30 The righteous will never be moved,

but the wicked will not inhabit the land. ¹ 

Amsal 12:7

12:7 The wicked are overthrown ²  and perish, ³ 

but the righteous household ⁴  will stand.

[10:30]  ¹ sn This proverb concerns the enjoyment of covenant blessings – dwelling in the land of Israel. It is promised to the righteous for an eternal inheritance, and so the wicked cannot expect to settle there – they will be exiled.

[12:7]  ² sn This proverb is about the stability of the righteous in times of trouble. The term “overthrown” might allude to Gen 19:21.

[12:7]  ³ tn Heb “and they are not.”

[12:7]  ⁴ tn Heb “the house of the righteous.” The genitive צַדִּיקִים (tsadiqim) functions as an attributive adjective: “righteous house.” The noun בֵּית (bet, “house”) functions as a synecdoche of container (= house) for the contents (= family, household; perhaps household possessions). Cf. NCV “a good person’s family”; NLT “the children of the godly.”
