Proverbs 3:35

The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the recompense of fools.
Read Chapter 3

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849
Disgrace. They are seen by more, and their fall is more dangerous. (Calmet) "A fool extols what is ignominious. "(Pagnin) (Haydock)

Hippolytus of Rome

AD 235
They will not simply obtain glory but inherit wisdom. The wicked, again, even though they are exalted, are exalted only so as to have greater dishonor. For as one does not honor someone who is ugly and misshapen, if he exalts him, but only dishonors him the more by making his shame manifest to a larger number; so also God exalts the wicked, in order that he may make their disgrace obvious. For pharaoh was exalted, but only to have the world as his accuser. .

Hippolytus of Rome

AD 235
They will not simply obtain, but inherit. The wicked, again, even though they are exalted, are exalted only so as to have greater dishonour.  For as one does not honour an ugly and misshapen fellow, if he exalts him, but only dishonours him the more, by making his shame manifest to a larger number; so also God exalts the wicked, in order that He may make their disgrace patent. For Pharaoh was exalted, but only to have the world as his accuser.

Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation - 2 Peter 1:20
