SEV Biblia, Chapter 15:15
¶ Todos los días del pobre son trabajosos; mas el de buen corazón tiene un convite continuo.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 15. All the days of the afflicted [are] evil , etc.] And some are afflicted all their days, from their youth up; so that not only the days of old age are evil days, in which they have no pleasure, but even the days of their youth; all their days, as Jacob says, “few and evil have the days of the years of my life been”, ( Genesis 47:9); because they had been filled up with affliction and trouble of one sort or another. Or, “all the days of the poor” f440 ; either in purse, who want many of the good things of life; or in knowledge, as Gersom and Aben Ezra observe; but he that is of a merry heart [hath] a continual feast ; a heart that has “the kingdom of God” in it, which lies “not [in] meat and drink, but [in] righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost”, ( Romans 14:17): which has the love of God shed abroad in it by the Spirit, where Christ dwells by faith; and that lives by faith on him, and on the provisions of his grace; all this is a constant continual feast to a gracious soul, made joyful hereby.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 15 - Some are much in affliction, and of a sorrowful spirit. Such are to be pitied, prayed for, and comforted. And others serve God with gladnes of heart, and it prompts their obedience, yet they should rejoice with trembling.
