Verse. 11. The house of the wicked shall be destroyed: but the tabernacle of the righteous shall flourish.
The house of the wicked) the wicked himself and his whole estate, shall be destroyed, shall be overthrown and rooted cut by the curse of God, either suddenly, & all at once, as is to be seen in some or in continuance of time, & by degrees, as it falleth out to others. But the tabernacle of the righteous, his habitation himself, & those things which belong unto him, shall flourish, shall be blessed of God and made prosperous. Doct.
