“The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.”
Proverbs 10:28 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 10:28
The hope of the righteous shall be gladness, but the expectation of the wicked shall perish. What the righteous anticipate (blessing, God's favor) will come to fruition in joy. What the wicked expect (success through evil) will fail utterly. This verse grounds ethics in eschatology - ultimate outcomes vindicate righteousness and expose wickedness's futility. Present circumstances don't determine final outcomes; God's justice does.
