Proverbs 13:9
9 The light of the righteous rejoices,
But the lamp of the wicked will be put out.
-Proverbs 13:9
We have become spoiled in today's world. Light is provided often throughout the night, though when this was written, that was something people needed to keep on top of. If someone's lamp went out in the middle of the night they were left in absolute darkness. Such will be the fate of the wicked. When the night hits, they will be left in total darkness as their lamps will be put out. The righteous will rejoice as they will dwell in light forevermore. Consider the parable of the 10 Virgins in Matthew 25. Be certain that you have oil in your lamp and are prepared for the Master's return.
But the lamp of the wicked will be put out.
