SEV Biblia, Chapter 23:17

¶ No tenga tu corazón envidia de los pecadores, antes persevera en el temor del SEÑOR todo tiempo;

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 17. Let not thine heart
envy sinners , etc.] Their present prosperity and happiness, the pleasure, profit, and honour, they seem to enjoy; all which is but a shadow, fading had temporary; and yet good men are apt to envy it in their hearts, if they do not express it with their lips; and are ready to murmur and think it hard that they should be in straitened circumstances while the wicked are in flourishing ones; and inwardly fret and are uneasy at it, which they should not, ( Psalm 37:1,7 73:2); or do not “emulate” or “imitate” them, or do as they do, thinking thereby to enjoy the same prosperity and happiness; choose not their ways, nor desire to be with them, to have their company, or be ranked among them, ( Proverbs 3:31 24:1); but [be thou] in the fear of the Lord all the day long ; let the fear of God be always before thine eyes and in thine heart; be continually in the exercise of fear, which is attended with faith and trust in the Lord; with love and affection to him, and joy and delight in him; be constantly employed in the duties of religion, private and public, which the fear of God includes; and this will be a preservative from envying, murmuring, and fretting at the outward happiness of wicked men; and from joining with them in their evil ways. Aben Ezra, and who is followed by some others, render it, “but [emulate or imitate] the men that fear the Lord all the day long” f627 ; be followers of them, and do as they do; let their constant piety and devotion stir up a holy emulation in thee to copy after them and exceed them; but the former sense is best.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 17, 18 - The
believer's expectation shall not be disappointed; the end of his trials, and of the sinner's prosperity, is at hand.
