Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Proverbs 19:29

_ _ Their punishment is sure, fixed, and ready (compare Proverbs 3:34; Proverbs 10:13).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

Proverbs 19:29

_ _ Note, 1. Scorners are fools. Those that ridicule things sacred and serious do but make themselves ridiculous. Their folly shall be manifest unto all men. 2. Those that scorn judgments cannot escape them, Proverbs 19:28. The unbelief of man shall not make God's threatenings of no effect; those that devour iniquity swallow the hook with the bait. The civil magistrate has judgments prepared for scorners, for otherwise he would bear the sword in vain; but if he be remiss, and connive at sin, yet God's judgments slumber not; they are prepared, Matthew 25:41.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Proverbs 19:29

Prepared — Although they be deferred for a time, yet they are treasured up for them.
