Commentary on Proverbs 16:7
When a person's ways please the LORD, even enemies are at peace with them. This promises providential protection for the obedient, though not immunity from all conflict. God can turn hearts (as He did with Joseph's brothers) or restrain opposition when it serves His purposes.
