New English Translation

Footnotes

1. Proverbs 23:18 tn Heb “end” (so KJV); ASV “a reward.”
2. Proverbs 23:18 sn The saying is an understatement; far from being cut off, the “hope” will be realized in the end. So this saying, the thirteenth, advises people to be zealous for the fear of the Lord, their religion, rather than for anything that sinners have to offer.
