Verse 31 is found in chapter 10 of Proverbs. The final section relates blessing, the fear of the Lord, work, righteousness, and destiny. Divine blessing is not presented as mere material accumulation, but as that which enriches without adding the sorrow associated with sinful gain. The contrast between righteous and wicked appears again: one finds stability in God’s way, while the other is ultimately exposed by his own perversity.
