בְּמ֤וֹת אָדָ֣ם רָ֭שָׁע תֹּאבַ֣ד תִּקְוָ֑ה וְתוֹחֶ֖לֶת אוֹנִ֣ים אָבָֽדָה׃
La mort met fin à l’espoir du méchant et anéantit l’attente des violents.
Rashi on Proverbs
When a wicked man dies, hope is lost The hope of all who trust in him.
Rashi on Proverbs
and the expectation of his children is lost Heb. אונים. The expectation of his children, who are the products of his strength, is lost, for no good will come to them in his merit. But when the righteous die, their children have trust in their righteousness.
