10:28 Gladness - Shall be accomplished, and turned into enjoyment.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

28. gladness-in confidence of realizing it.

expectation . perish-in disappointment.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

10:22. That wealth which is truly desirable, has no vexation of spirit in the enjoyment; no grief for the loss; no guilt by the abuse of it. What comes from the love of God, has the grace of God for its companion. 23. Only foolish and wicked men divert themselves with doing harm to others, or tempting to sin. 24. The largest desire of eternal blessings the righteous can form, will be granted. 25. The course of prosperous sinners is like a whirlwind, which soon spends itself, and is gone. 26. As vinegar sets the teeth on edge, and as the smoke causes the eyes to smart, so the sluggard vexes his employer. 27,28. What man is he that loves life? Let him fear God, and that will secure to him life enough in this world, and eternal life in the other.

Job 8:13 "So are the paths of all who forget God; And the hope of the godless will perish,

Job 11:20 "But the eyes of the wicked will fail, And there will be no escape for them; And their hope is to breathe their last."

Proverbs 11:7 When a wicked man dies, his expectation will perish, And the hope of strong men perishes.

Proverbs 11:23 The desire of the righteous is only good, But the expectation of the wicked is wrath. (NASB ©1995)
