If he The wicked man last mentioned; turn not From his wicked course; he God; will whet his sword Will prepare, and hasten, and speedily execute his judgments upon him. He hath bent his bow Did I say, He will do it? nay, he hath already done it; his sword is drawn, his bow is bent, and the arrows are prepared and ready to be shot. The wrath of God may be slow, but it is always sure, and the sinner who is not converted by the vengeance inflicted on others, will himself, at length, be made an example of vengeance to others. He hath prepared for him For the wicked; the instruments of death That is, deadly weapons. He ordaineth Designs or fits for this very use; his arrows against the persecutors Of all sinners, persecutors are set up as the fairest marks of divine wrath. They set God at defiance, but cannot set themselves out of the reach of his judgments.
