Daily Wisdom Bible Study – Happy is the Man That Feareth Alway
11 The rich man is wise in his own conceit; but the poor that hath understanding searcheth him out.
Good wisdom and knowledge humble the rich, therefore a rich person wise in their own egotism or self-admiration, will be search out and found by the poor man who has a good understanding. The poor will know if this person is genuine or not.
12 When righteous men do rejoice, there is great glory: but when the wicked rise, a man is hidden.
Only the wicked want to be around the wicked. The righteous rejoice and there is great glory and joyfulness, especially when a righteous person is in power. When the wicked rise up, people go back to minding their own business and making no eye contact.
13 He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.
Those who make excuse for their sins will not prosper. Either they make excuse or pretend they didn’t commit iniquity or offend. They won’t prosper because they will continue to commit sin and offend again and again. Those who confess their sin and stop committing them will obtain mercy. There is no glory in stealing from your brother, confessing your offense, and continuing to steal from him or from another brother or friend. You have to forsake your sinful actions in order to obtain mercy!
Happy is the Man That Feareth Alway
14 Happy is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief.
This is pointing to the man that fears God always. The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, thus if we remain in the fear of God we will increase our wisdom as we go forward. Nevertheless, those that hardened their heart, meaning they close off wisdom, they close off the fear of God, they close off learning about the True and Living God; these people will fall into misconduct.
15 As a roaring lion, and a ranging bear; so is a wicked ruler over the poor people.
Animals are unstable and unpredictable like a wicked ruler over the poor.
