10:28The hope102 of the righteous is joy,
but the expectation of the wicked will remain unfulfilled.103
Footnotes
- 102 This proverb contrasts the hopes of the righteous and the wicked. The righteous will see their hopes fulfilled. The saying is concerned with God’s justice. The words תּוֹחֶלֶת (tokhelet, from יָחַל, yakhal) and תִּקְוַת (tiqvat, from קָוָה, qavah) are synonyms, both emphasizing eager expectations, longings, waiting in hope.
- 103 Heb “will perish”; “comes to nought.”
