SEV Biblia, Chapter 29:16

¶ Cuando los impíos son muchos, mucha es la prevaricación; mas los justos verán la ruina de ellos.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Proverbs 29:16

Verse 16. When the
wicked are multiplied ] That, in the multiplication of the wicked transgression is increased, requires no proof; but an important doctrine attaches to this. On this account wicked nations and wicked families are cut off and rooted out. Were it not so righteousness would in process of time be banished from the earth. This will account for many of the numerous instances in which whole families fail.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 16. When the
wicked are multiplied , etc.] Or “are in authority” f812 ; as the word is rendered, ( Proverbs 29:2); transgression increaseth ; among the common people, being encouraged by their wicked rulers, whose examples they follow; or as the wicked themselves increase, in numbers, in age, in power, and riches, their sins increase too; but the righteous shall see their fall , from their places of authority and power, of honour, riches, and grandeur, into a low and despicable condition, into ruin and destruction; and that with pleasure, because of the glory of God, his wisdom, justice, truth, and faithfulness, displayed therein; (see Psalm 58:10).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 16 - Let not the
righteous have their faith and hope shocked by the increas of sin and sinners, but let them wait with patience.
