SEV Biblia, Chapter 11:28

¶ El que confía en sus riquezas, caerá; mas los justos reverdecerán como ramos.

---

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 28. He that trusteth in his riches shall fall , etc.] As leaves in autumn, which are withered and dry. To trust in riches is to trust in uncertain things; things not to be depended on, being here today and gone tomorrow; it is like leaning upon a broken staff, which giving way, the person falls: and so the fall of Babylon will be, while she is trusting in and boasting of her riches and grandeur, ( Revelation 18:7,8); but the righteous shall flourish as a branch ; that abides in the tree, is alive and green, full of leaves, and laden with fruit: so the righteous are as branches in Christ, and receive life and nourishment from him, and abide in him; and bring forth fruit and flourish, like palm trees and cedars, in the house of the Lord, and grow in every grace, and in the knowledge of Christ; (see Jeremiah 17:7,8).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 28 - The true believer is a branch of the living Vine. When those that tak root in the world wither, those who are grafted into Christ shall be fruitful.
