John Trapp on Proverbs 24:25

Verſ. 25. But to them that rebuke him ſhall be delight] Thoſe Judges that reprove and puniſh the wicked ſhall (beſides the Euge of a good Conſcience, which is farre better than the worlds Plaudite) delight themſelves in the Lord, and reign in the affections of all good men, who ſhall eftſoons alſo ſay, Gods bleſſing be on ſuch a good Judges heart, for he ſaveth the innocent, and puniſheth the wicked, &c. As he hath done worthily in Ephrata, ſo he ſhall be famous in Bethlehem, Ruth 4.11. See Job 29.11, 12.
