SEV Biblia, Chapter 20:20

¶ El que maldice a su padre o a su madre, su candela será apagada en oscuridad tenebrosa.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Proverbs 20:20

Verse 20. Whoso curseth his
father ] Such persons were put to death under the law; see Exod. xxi. 17; Lev. xx. 9, and here it is said, Their lamp shall be put out-they shall have no posterity; God shall cut them off both root and branch.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 20. Whoso curseth his
father or his mother , etc.] This is dreadful indeed! a person must be got to a great pitch of wickedness to do this; to curse his parents, one or other of them, that have been the instruments of his being, and by whom he has been brought up and put out into the world; to slight them, despise them, and mock at them, is highly base and criminal, but to curse them is shocking! what can such expect but the curse of God upon them? his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness ; he shall be deprived of his natural sight; (see Proverbs 30:17); or the very light of nature shall be extinct in him; and indeed such an one acts as if not guided by it, nor under its influence; or whatsoever favour from the Lord he has enjoyed, it shall be taken from him; his lamp or candle of outward felicity shall be quenched, and burn no longer; (see Job 18:5 22:17); or his soul, the candle of the Lord, in him, ( Proverbs 20:27); shall be removed; or he “shall die”, not only a corporeal but an eternal death; see ( Exodus 21:17); “blackness of darkness” as the words may be rendered, are reserved for him in the world to come, and which will be his portion, ( Jude 1:13).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 20 - An undutiful child will become very
miserable. Never let him expect an peace or comfort.
