Amsal 10:29

10:29 The way of the Lord ²  is like ³  a stronghold for the upright, ⁴ 

but it is destruction ⁵  to evildoers. ⁶ 

[4:22]  ¹ tn Heb “to all of his flesh.”

[10:29]  ² sn The “way of the Lord” is an idiom for God’s providential administration of life; it is what the Lord does (“way” being a hypocatastasis).

[10:29]  ³ tn The comparative “like” does not appear in the Hebrew text, but is implied by the metaphor; it is supplied in the translation for the sake of clarity.

[10:29]  ⁴ tn Heb “for the one with integrity” (לַתֹּם, latom).

[10:29]  ⁵ tn Or “ruin” (so NIV).

[10:29]  ⁶ tn Heb “those who practice iniquity.”
