Proverbs 14:32
The wicked man is thrown down by his own sin, but the righteous man has a refuge even in death.
BSB
ASV
The wicked is thrust down in his evil-doing; But the righteous hath a refuge in his death.
KJV
The wicked is driven away in his wickedness: but the righteous hath hope in his death.
The wicked is driven away in his wickedness - He does not leave life cheerfully. Poor soul! Thou hast no hope in the other world, and thou leavest the present with the utmost regret! Thou wilt not go off; but God will drive thee. But the righteous hath hope in his death - He rejoiceth to depart and be with Christ: to him death is gain; he is not reluctant to go - he flies at the call of God.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
