Only The Righteous Remain Forever (Proverbs 2:22)

The Wicked Shall Be Cut Off and Rooted Out (Proverbs 2:22)

But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth
Suddenly by death; or in a judicial way by the hand of the civil magistrate, before they have lived out half their days; and shall not enjoy the good things of the earth they have been seeking for, and laying up, and promising themselves a long and quiet possession of; but, on the contrary, like unfruitful trees, shall be cut down, and cast into the fire; and, however, shall not dwell in the second Adam's earth, in the new earth, but shall perish out of his land, ( Psalms 10:16 ) ; see ( Psalms 37:2 Psalms 37:9 Psalms 37:22 Psalms 37:28 Psalms 37:38 ) ;

And the Transgressors Shall be Rooted Out of It

These individuals have all acted treacherously and perfidiously, and are opposed to upright men; as the wicked are to the righteous, pure, and spotless; these shall not only be cut off as trees to the stump, but be rooted up, and have neither root nor branch left them; they shall have no posterity to succeed them, and their memory shall utterly perish; see ( Malachi 4:1 ) ; or "shall be scraped off", or "swept away", as the dust and dross of the earth, and the offscouring of all things.

The Righteous will look around and will see for themselves that the wicked are no longer there..
