Proverbs 12:2
_ _ Note, 1. We are really as we are with God. Those are happy, truly happy, for ever happy, that obtain favour of the Lord, though the world frown upon them, and they find little favour with men; for in God's favour is life, and that is the fountain of all good. On the other hand those are miserable whom he condemns, however men may applaud them, and cry them up; whom he condemns he condemns to the second death. 2. We are with God as we are with men, as we have our conversation in this world. Our Father judges of his children very much by their conduct one to another; and therefore a good man, that is merciful, and charitable, and does good, draws out favour from the Lord by his prayers; but a malicious man, that devises wickedness against his neighbours, he will condemn, as unworthy of a place in his kingdom. |

Proverbs 8:35 For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD. Psalms 112:5 A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion. Ecclesiastes 8:8 [There is] no man that hath power over the spirit to retain the spirit; neither [hath he] power in the day of death: and [there is] no discharge in [that] war; neither shall wickedness deliver those that are given to it. Acts 11:24 For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith: and much people was added unto the Lord. Romans 5:7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.

- a man:
Proverbs 1:31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices. Proverbs 6:18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, Psalms 9:15 The heathen are sunk down in the pit [that] they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken. Isaiah 32:5-7 The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said [to be] bountiful. ... The instruments also of the churl [are] evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the poor with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right.
