SEV Biblia, Chapter 12:20

¶ Engaño hay en el corazón de los que piensan mal; mas alegría en el de los que piensan bien.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 20.
Deceit [is] in the heart of them that imagine evil , etc.] That secretly devise mischief in their hearts against their neighbours; that plough evil, as the word signifies, and sow discord among men; and by many artful and deceitful methods promote contention and division, in order to answer some base designs of theirs; but sooner or later they are deceived themselves, are disappointed of their views, the consequence of which is vexation and sorrow; but to the counsellors of peace [is] joy : such who consult the good of others, who advise to peace, concord, and unity; who seek to cultivate it in their families and neighbourhoods, and in the church of God, in which, if they succeed, they have joy and pleasure; if not, they have a satisfaction, in their own minds and consciences that they have done what is right and good; such have a conscience peace now, and an eternal one hereafter; or, as Aben Ezra calls it, the joy of salvation; (see Matthew 5:9).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 20 -
Deceit and falsehood bring terrors and perplexities. But those wh consult the peace and happiness of others have joy in their own minds.
