Proverbs 12:3 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 12:3
A man shall not be established by wickedness, but the root of the righteous shall not be moved. Wickedness provides no stable foundation - it cannot establish secure existence. Righteousness provides deep roots ensuring stability against storms. The root imagery emphasizes both invisibility (character) and stability (endurance). What's established by wickedness will fall; what's rooted in righteousness will stand.
