Proverbs 10:21

King James Version (KJV)
Albert Barnes
Notes on the Whole Bible

Feed - The Hebrew word, like ποιμαίνειν poimainein includes the idea of guiding as well as nourishing; doing a shepherd‘s work in both.

For want of wisdom - Some prefer, through him who wanteth understanding, referring to a person. The wise guides others to safety; the fool, empty-headed, and empty-hearted, involves others like himself in destruction.

Ellen G. White
Conflict and Courage, 9.1

The lips of the righteous feed many. Proverbs 10:21. CC 9.1
