SEV Biblia, Chapter 22:1

¶ De ms estima es la buena fama que las muchas riquezas; y la buena gracia ms que la plata y el oro.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Proverbs 22:1

Verse 1. A good name ]
shem, a name, put for reputation, credit, fame. Used nearly in the same way that we use it: "He has got a name;"his name stands high;" for "He is a man of credit and reputation." abf toba, kalon, hamood, and bonum, are added by the Chaldee, Septuagint, Arabiac, and Vulgate, all signifying good or excellent.

Is rather to be chosen than great riches ] Because character will support a man in many circumstances; and there are many rich men that have no name: but the word of the man of character will go farther than all their riches.


Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1 - We should be more careful to do that by which we may get and keep good name, than to raise or add unto a great estate.
