Proverbs 22:8. He that soweth iniquity Or, unrighteousness; he, whose common practice it is to wrong or oppress others; shall reap vanity Or trouble, or misery, as the word און commonly signifies, and as many here render it.

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Proverbs 22:1-16

Children and adults (22:1-16)People vary in reputation and status, but they should respect one another as being equally God’s creatures (22:1-2). Wise people will act with caution and humility. They will bring up their children in a way that prepares them for the experiences they will face in the life ahead (3-6). Those who borrow will fall into the power of the lenders, and this can lead to unjust treatment of the poor by the rich. Such oppression will be punished, but generosity will be... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Proverbs 22:7

"The rich rule over the poor; And the borrower is servant to the lender."This states an unhappy fact, but without any approval of it (See the first two verses).

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Proverbs 22:8

"He that soweth iniquity shall reap calamity; And the rod of his wrath shall fail.""If you plant the seeds of injustice, disaster will spring up, and your oppression of others will end."[7] "A man who sows evil has a harvest of trouble; his labor goes for nothing."[8] Any person who is sinning is "sowing iniquity." The Septuagint (LXX) has a variant reading for the second line, "God loves a cheerful and liberal man,"[9] and Scott called this the source of Paul's words in 2 Corinthians 9:7.[10] read more

Proverbs 22:8. He that soweth iniquity, &c.— Houbigant renders this, He that soweth iniquity shall reap vanity: the rod shall disperse and dissipate his labour: and he supposes the idea to be taken from sowing and harvest. See Isaiah 28:27-28. Schultens says the meaning is, that, "He who soweth iniquity, when he thinks his harvest to be come, shall himself undergo the flail or rod; by which he shall be consumed, being bruised himself who used to bruise others, and his punishment shall be... read more
