Charles Ellicott Commentary Proverbs 14:11

"The house of the wicked shall be overthrown; But the tent of the upright shall flourish." — Proverbs 14:11 (ASV)

The house of the wicked shall be overthrown. —Observe the contrast between the “house” and “tabernacle” (tent); the slighter one will stand, while the more strongly built one will perish. (Compare to Proverbs 3:33.)
