Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Proverbs 13:5

_ _ loathsome ... shame — better, causeth shame and reproach (compare Proverbs 19:26), by slander, etc., which the righteous hates.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

Proverbs 13:5

_ _ Note, 1. Where grace reigns sin is loathsome. It is the undoubted character of every righteous man that he hates lying (that is, all sin, for every sin is a lie, and particularly all fraud and falsehood in commerce and conversation), not only that he will not tell a lie, but he abhors lying, from a rooted reigning principle of love to truth and justice, and conformity to God. 2. Where sin reigns the man is loathsome. If his eyes were opened, and his conscience awakened, he would be so to himself, he would abhor himself and repent in dust and ashes; however, he is so to God and all good men; particularly, he makes himself so by lying, than which there is nothing more detestable. And, though he may think to face it out awhile, yet he will come to shame and contempt at last and will blush to show his face, Daniel 12:2.
